Protein Summary

GRSF1 is a 480-amino acid protein containing three RNA recognition motifs (RRMs). It localizes to mitochondria and binds to G-rich sequences in mitochondrial RNA, facilitating RNA processing and translation. It may also participate in cytoplasmic RNA regulation. The protein is ubiquitously expressed with higher levels in heart and testis.
