Identification of a target RNA motif for RNA-binding protein HuR
Open accessAbstract
HuR, a protein that binds to specific mRNA subsets, is increasingly recognized as a pivotal posttranscriptional regulator of gene expression. Here, HuR was immunoprecipitated under conditions that preserved HuR-RNA interactions, and HuR-bound target mRNAs were identified by cDNA array hybridization. Analysis of primary sequences and secondary structures shared among HuR targets led to the identification of a 17- to 20-base-long RNA motif rich in uracils. This HuR motif was found in almost all mRNAs previously reported to be HuR targets, was located preferentially within 3′ untranslated regions of all unigene transcripts examined, and was conserved in >50% of human and mouse homologous genes. Importantly, the HuR motif allowed the successful prediction and subsequent validation of novel HuR targets from gene databases. This study describes an HuR target RNA motif and presents a general strategy for identifying target motifs for RNA-binding proteins.

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.
