Background
ELAV like RNA binding protein 1(ELAVL1) Homo sapiens The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the ELAVL family of RNA-binding proteins that contain several RNA recognition motifs, and selectively bind AU-rich elements (AREs) found in the 3' untranslated regions of mRNAs. AREs signal degradation of mRNAs as a means to regulate gene expression, thus by binding AREs, the ELAVL family of proteins play a role in stabilizing ARE-containing mRNAs. This gene has been implicated in a variety of biological processes and has been linked to a number of diseases, including cancer. It is highly expressed in many cancers, and could be potentially useful in cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2012],
Function
function:Binds avidly to the AU-rich element in FOS and IL3/interleukin-3 mRNAs. In the case of the FOS AU-rich element, HUR binds to a core element of 27 nucleotides that contain AUUUA, AUUUUA, and AUUUUUA motifs.,PTM:Methylated at Arg-217 by CARM1 in macrophages in response to LPS challenge.,similarity:Belongs to the RRM elav family.,similarity:Contains 3 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains.,subunit:Interacts with ANP32A.,tissue specificity:Ubiquitous.,
