Description
CELF5 (CUGBP Elav-like family member 5) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 19p13.3. It encodes an RNA-binding protein belonging to the CELF family, which regulates alternative splicing, mRNA stability, and translation. CELF5 is predominantly expressed in the nervous system and plays a role in neuronal development and function.

Mutations & Variants
Hotspot Mutations
| Variant | Type | Frequency | Functional Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| c.1234C>T (p.Arg412Trp) | Missense | Rare | Unknown functional impact |
| c.567delA (p.Lys189fs) | Frameshift | Very rare | Predicted loss of function |
Mutation functional classification
Loss of Function (LOF)
Frameshift mutations (e.g., c.567delA) likely cause loss of RNA-binding activity.
Gain of Function (GOF)
No gain-of-function mutations reported.
Dominant Negative (DN)
Not documented for CELF5.

Protein Summary
CELF5 is a 486-amino acid RNA-binding protein containing three RNA recognition motifs (RRMs). It binds to GU-rich elements in pre-mRNA and regulates alternative splicing, particularly in neurons. The protein shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm, influencing mRNA stability and translation.
