The RRM motif (a.k.a. RRM, RBD, or RNP domain) is probably diagnostic of an RNA binding protein. RRMs are found in a variety of RNA binding proteins, including various hnRNP proteins, proteins implicated in regulation of alternative splicing, and protein components of snRNPs. The motif also appears in a few single stranded DNA binding proteins. The RRM structure consists of four strands and two helices arranged in an alpha/beta sandwich, with a third helix present during RNA binding in some cases The C-terminal beta strand (4th strand) and final helix are hard to align and have been omitted in the SEED alignment The LA proteins (Swiss:P05455) have an N terminal rrm which is included in the seed. There is a second region towards the C terminus that has some features characteristic of a rrm but does not appear to have the important structural core of a rrm. The LA proteins (Swiss:P05455) are one of the main autoantigens in Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease.
Large ribosomal subunit protein uL24, C-terminal domain
This entry describes the C-terminal domain in large ribosomal subunit protein uL24 (also known as RPL26). RPL26 is one of the proteins from the large ribosomal subunit. In their mature form, these proteins have 103 to 150 amino-acid residues. RPL26 m ...
This entry describes the C-terminal domain in large ribosomal subunit protein uL24 (also known as RPL26). RPL26 is one of the proteins from the large ribosomal subunit. In their mature form, these proteins have 103 to 150 amino-acid residues. RPL26 makes very minor contributions to the biogenesis structure, and function of 60s ribosomal subunits [1]. However, RPL24 is essential to generate the first intermediate during 50s ribosomal subunits assembly [2]. RPL26 have an extra-ribosomal function to enhances p53 translation after DNA damage [3].
Cyclophilin type peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase/CLD
The peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases, also known as cyclophilins, share this domain of about 109 amino acids. Cyclophilins have been found in all organisms studied so far and catalyse peptidyl-prolyl isomerisation during which the peptide bond pr ...
The peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases, also known as cyclophilins, share this domain of about 109 amino acids. Cyclophilins have been found in all organisms studied so far and catalyse peptidyl-prolyl isomerisation during which the peptide bond preceding proline (the peptidyl-prolyl bond) is stabilised in the cis conformation. Mammalian cyclophilin A (CypA) is a major cellular target for the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A (CsA). Other roles for cyclophilins may include chaperone and cell signalling function [1].
