Disease relevance of RBM8A

  • Our results suggest major differences in the interactions of SIVmac251 and macrophage-tropic HIV-1 isolates with 19, N13, and Y14 in the amino terminus; with Q93 in extracellular loop 1; and with extracellular loop 2 of human CCR5 [1].
 

High impact information on RBM8A

  • Like Y14 and Aly/REF, hUpf3 binds to spliced mRNAs specifically ( approximately 20 nucleotides) upstream of exon-exon junctions [2].
  • In contrast, REF/Aly, Y14, and Magoh remain stably bound to spliced mRNA, indicating that these three proteins are components of the EJC core [3].
  • Nonetheless, hUpf2 is necessary for NMD mediated by tethered Y14 [4].
  • Interestingly, Y14 associates preferentially with mRNAs produced by splicing but not with pre-mRNAs, introns, or mRNAs produced from intronless cDNAs [5].
  • We describe a novel RNA binding protein, Y14, a predominantly nuclear nucleocytoplasmic shuttling protein [5].
 

Biological context of RBM8A

 

Anatomical context of RBM8A

  • Here, using microinjection of pre-mRNAs into Xenopus oocyte nuclei followed by immunoprecipitation of RNase-fragmented mRNAs from the cytoplasm, we show that Y14 is stably bound to sequences immediately upstream of exon-exon junctions [9].
  • Also similar to MAGOH, RBM8 expression is serum inducible in quiescent NIH3T3 fibroblast cells [10].
  • How Y14 and other components of the EJC are removed from mRNAs into the cytoplasm has not been determined.RESULTS: We show that Y14 but not another EJC component, Aly/REF, is present in polysome profile fractions containing one ribosome per mRNA [11].
  • Staufen-1, Y14, Mago-m, and Pumilio-1 were expressed in intestinal epithelial cells of both villus and crypt and in Caco-2 and IEC-6 cells [12].
 

Associations of RBM8A with chemical compounds

  • We have cloned and characterized two genomic loci encoding the human type II gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptor and RNA-binding motif protein-8 (RBM8A) [7].
  • Y14 linked to the COOH terminus of yellow fluorescent protein (YFP; YC-Y14), and NXF1 fused to the NH2 terminus of YFP (YN-NXF1) expressed in MCF7 cells yielded BiFC upon specific binding [13].
  • Moreover, we found that Y14 is possibly methylated at multiple arginine residues in the carboxyl-terminal domain and that methylation of Y14 was antagonized by phosphorylation of RS dipeptides [14].
  • This requires the juxtamembrane tyrosine Y1001 (Y2) of Met, but not the multifunctional docking site (Y14/15) or any additional C-terminal tyrosine residues (Y13-16) [15].
  • This binding surface largely overlaps with the dimer interface and is strongly positively charged, providing a rationale for the exclusive binding of the monomer to the peptide and the requirement of the negative sulfate groups at the Y10 and Y14 side-chains [16].
 

Physical interactions of RBM8A

  • Magoh binds avidly and directly to Y14 and TAP, but not to other known components of the complex, and is found in Y14-containing mRNPs in vivo [17].
  • Y14 is part of a multi-protein complex that also contains the mRNA export factor TAP [9].
 

Other interactions of RBM8A

 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of RBM8A

  • Using fluorescence in situ hybridization and the 5.8-kb complementary DNA probe, we determined that BOV-1 maps to both chromosome 5q13-q14 and chromosome 14q22-q23 [21].
  • Northern blot analysis revealed that BOV-1 is ubiquitously expressed and that three distinct messenger RNA species are expressed, 1-, 3.2-, and 5.8-kb transcripts [21].
  • In contrast, Y14 and magoh, which remain stably associated with mRNA after export to the cytoplasm, join the EJC during or after completion of exon-exon ligation [22].
  • Further sequence analysis determined that the gene coding the 1- and the 3.2-kb transcripts (HGMW-approved gene symbol RBM8A) maps to 14q22-q23, whereas a second highly related gene coding for the 5.8-kb transcript resides at chromosome 5q13-q14 (HGMW-approved gene symbol RBM8B) [21].
