Description

RBPMS2 (RNA Binding Protein, mRNA Processing Factor 2) is a protein-coding gene that encodes a member of the RNA-binding protein family. The protein contains an RNA recognition motif (RRM) and is involved in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, including mRNA splicing, stability, and translation. RBPMS2 is expressed in various tissues and has been implicated in smooth muscle cell differentiation and cardiac development.

Protein Summary

The RBPMS2 protein is a 227-amino acid RNA-binding protein containing a single RNA recognition motif (RRM) at the N-terminus. It binds to specific mRNA targets and regulates their splicing, stability, and translation. The protein is predominantly nuclear but can shuttle to the cytoplasm. It plays a role in smooth muscle cell differentiation and cardiac development. Structural studies show the RRM domain adopts a canonical αβββαβ fold.
