Description: Homo sapiens heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein D-like (HNRNPDL), transcript variant 2, mRNA. RefSeq Summary (NM_031372): This gene belongs to the subfamily of ubiquitously expressed heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs). The hnRNPs are RNA binding proteins and they complex with heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA). These proteins are associated with pre-mRNAs in the nucleus and appear to influence pre-mRNA processing and other aspects of mRNA metabolism and transport. While all of the hnRNPs are present in the nucleus, some seem to shuttle between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. The hnRNP proteins have distinct nucleic acid binding properties. The protein encoded by this gene has two RRM domains that bind to RNAs. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for this gene. One of the variants is probably not translated because the transcript is a candidate for nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. The protein isoforms encoded by this gene are similar to its family member HNRPD. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011].

ID:HNRDL_HUMAN DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein D-like; Short=hnRNP D-like; Short=hnRNP DL; AltName: Full=AU-rich element RNA-binding factor; AltName: Full=JKT41-binding protein; AltName: Full=Protein laAUF1; FUNCTION: Acts as a transcriptional regulator. Promotes transcription repression. Promotes transcription activation in differentiated myotubes (By similarity). Binds to double- and single-stranded DNA sequences. Binds to the transcription suppressor CATR sequence of the COX5B promoter (By similarity). Binds with high affinity to RNA molecules that contain AU-rich elements (AREs) found within the 3'-UTR of many proto-oncogenes and cytokine mRNAs. Binds both to nuclear and cytoplasmic poly(A) mRNAs. Binds to poly(G) and poly(A), but not to poly(U) or poly(C) RNA homopolymers. Binds to the 5'-ACUAGC-3' RNA consensus sequence. SUBUNIT: Interacts with ZNF148 (By similarity). Interacts with TNPO1. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=Shuttles between the nucleus and the cytoplasm in a TNPO1-dependent manner. TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, spleen, thymus, prostate, testis, ovary, small intestine, colon and leukocytes. Expressed in myeloid leukemia, gastric adenocarcinoma, cervical carcinoma, hepatoma, fibrosarcoma, colon adenocarcinoma, epidermoid carcinoma, osteosarcoma and urinary bladder carcinoma cells. INDUCTION: Up-regulated by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) in macrophages and retinoic acid (RA) in granulocytes (at protein level). Down-regulated by IL4/interleukin-4. PTM: Dimethylation of Arg-408 is probably of the asymmetric type. SIMILARITY: Contains 2 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains. SEQUENCE CAUTION: Sequence=BAA22860.1; Type=Erroneous initiation;
The RNAfold program from the Vienna RNA Package is used to perform the secondary structure predictions and folding calculations. The estimated folding energy is in kcal/mol. The more negative the energy, the more secondary structure the RNA is likely to have.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.
Orthologous Genes in Other Species
Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
