Abstract

At all stages of its life (from transcription to translation), an RNA transcript interacts with many different RNA-binding proteins. The composition of this supramolecular assembly, known as a ribonucleoprotein particle, is diverse and highly dynamic. RNA-binding proteins control the generation, maturation and lifespan of the RNA transcript and thus regulate and influence the cellular function of the encoded gene. Here, we review our current understanding of protein-RNA recognition mediated by the two most abundant RNA-binding domains (the RNA-recognition motif and the double-stranded RNA-binding motif) plus the zinc-finger motif, the most abundant nucleic-acid-binding domain. In addition, we discuss how not only the sequence but also the shape of the RNA are recognized by these three classes of RNA-binding protein.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Family members of SNRPA/SNF from fungi, protists, and algae have maintained the presumed ancestral CAC core-recognition specificity but differ in flanking nucleotide preference.

    “family members from fungi, protists and algae have all maintained the presumed ancestral CAC core-recognition specificity17, but differ in their preference for flanking nucleotides”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
