RNA recognition motif (RRM) superfamily; RRM, also known as RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), is a highly abundant domain in eukaryotes found in proteins involved in post-transcriptional gene expression processes including mRNA and rRNA processing, RNA export, and RNA stability. This domain is 90 amino acids in length and consists of a four-stranded beta-sheet packed against two alpha-helices. RRM usually interacts with ssRNA, but is also known to interact with ssDNA as well as proteins. RRM binds a variable number of nucleotides, ranging from two to eight. The active site includes three aromatic side-chains located within the conserved RNP1 and RNP2 motifs of the domain. The RRM domain is found in a variety heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), proteins implicated in regulation of alternative splicing, and protein components of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs).

RNA recognition motif (RRM) found in polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTB or hnRNP I), heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L (hnRNP-L), and similar proteins; This subfamily corresponds to the RRM1 of the majority of family members that include polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTB or hnRNP I), polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 2 (PTBP2 or nPTB), regulator of differentiation 1 (Rod1), heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L (hnRNP-L), heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L-like (hnRNP-LL), polypyrimidine tract-binding protein homolog 3 (PTBPH3), polypyrimidine tract-binding protein homolog 1 and 2 (PTBPH1 and PTBPH2), and similar proteins. PTB is an important negative regulator of alternative splicing in mammalian cells and also functions at several other aspects of mRNA metabolism, including mRNA localization, stabilization, polyadenylation, and translation. PTBP2 is highly homologous to PTB and is perhaps specific to the vertebrates. Unlike PTB, PTBP2 is enriched in the brain and in some neural cell lines. It binds more stably to the downstream control sequence (DCS) RNA than PTB does but is a weaker repressor of splicing in vitro. PTBP2 also greatly enhances the binding of two other proteins, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) H and KH-type splicing-regulatory protein (KSRP), to the DCS RNA. The binding properties of PTBP2 and its reduced inhibitory activity on splicing imply roles in controlling the assembly of other splicing-regulatory proteins. Rod1 is a mammalian polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) homolog of a regulator of differentiation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, where the nrd1 gene encodes an RNA binding protein negatively regulates the onset of differentiation. ROD1 is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells or organs. It might play a role controlling differentiation in mammals. hnRNP-L is a higher eukaryotic specific subunit of human KMT3a (also known as HYPB or hSet2) complex required for histone H3 Lys-36 trimethylation activity. It plays both, nuclear and cytoplasmic, roles in mRNA export of intronless genes, IRES-mediated translation, mRNA stability, and splicing. hnRNP-LL protein plays a critical and unique role in the signal-induced regulation of CD45 and acts as a global regulator of alternative splicing in activated T cells. The family also includes polypyrimidine tract binding protein homolog 3 (PTBPH3) found in plant. Although its biological roles remain unclear, PTBPH3 shows significant sequence similarity to other family members, all of which contain four RNA recognition motifs (RRM), also known as RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain). Although their biological roles remain unclear, both PTBPH1 and PTBPH2 show significant sequence similarity to PTB. However, in contrast to PTB, they have three RRMs. In addition, this family also includes RNA-binding motif protein 20 (RBM20) that is an alternative splicing regulator associated with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and contains only one RRM.

RNA recognition motif (RRM) found in heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein C (hnRNP C)-related proteins; This subfamily corresponds to the RRM in the hnRNP C-related protein family, including hnRNP C proteins, Raly, and Raly-like protein (RALYL). hnRNP C proteins, C1 and C2, are produced by a single coding sequence. They are the major constituents of the heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA) ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) complex in vertebrates. They bind hnRNA tightly, suggesting a central role in the formation of the ubiquitous hnRNP complex; they are involved in the packaging of the hnRNA in the nucleus and in processing of pre-mRNA such as splicing and 3'-end formation. Raly, also termed autoantigen p542, is an RNA-binding protein that may play a critical role in embryonic development. The biological role of RALYL remains unclear. It shows high sequence homology with hnRNP C proteins and Raly. Members of this family are characterized by an N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), and a C-terminal auxiliary domain. The Raly proteins contain a glycine/serine-rich stretch within the C-terminal regions, which is absent in the hnRNP C proteins. Thus, the Raly proteins represent a newly identified class of evolutionarily conserved autoepitopes.

RNA recognition motif 2 (RRM2) found in vertebrate matrin-3; This subgroup corresponds to the RRM2 of Matrin 3 (MATR3 or P130), a highly conserved inner nuclear matrix protein with a bipartite nuclear localization signal (NLS), two zinc finger domains predicted to bind DNA, and two RNA recognition motifs (RRM), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), that are known to interact with RNA. MATR3 has been implicated in various biological processes. It is involved in RNA processing by interacting with other nuclear proteins to anchor hyperedited RNAs to the nuclear matrix. It plays a role in mRNA stabilization through maintaining the stability of certain mRNA species. Besides, it modulates the activity of proximal promoters by binding to highly repetitive sequences of matrix/scaffold attachment region (MAR/SAR). The phosphorylation of MATR3 is assumed to cause neuronal death. It is phosphorylated by the protein kinase ATM, which activates the cellular response to double strand breaks in the DNA. Its phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA) is responsible for the activation of the N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor. Furthermore, MATR3 has been identified as both a Ca2+-dependent CaM-binding protein and a downstream substrate of caspases. Additional research indicates that matrin 3 also binds Rev/Rev responsive element (RRE)-containing viral RNA and functions as a cofactor that mediates the post-transcriptional regulation of HIV-1.

RNA recognition motif 2 (RRM2) found in vertebrate matrin-3; This subgroup corresponds to the RRM2 of Matrin 3 (MATR3 or P130), a highly conserved inner nuclear matrix protein with a bipartite nuclear localization signal (NLS), two zinc finger domains predicted to bind DNA, and two RNA recognition motifs (RRM), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), that are known to interact with RNA. MATR3 has been implicated in various biological processes. It is involved in RNA processing by interacting with other nuclear proteins to anchor hyperedited RNAs to the nuclear matrix. It plays a role in mRNA stabilization through maintaining the stability of certain mRNA species. Besides, it modulates the activity of proximal promoters by binding to highly repetitive sequences of matrix/scaffold attachment region (MAR/SAR). The phosphorylation of MATR3 is assumed to cause neuronal death. It is phosphorylated by the protein kinase ATM, which activates the cellular response to double strand breaks in the DNA. Its phosphorylation by protein kinase A (PKA) is responsible for the activation of the N-methyl-d-aspartic acid (NMDA) receptor. Furthermore, MATR3 has been identified as both a Ca2+-dependent CaM-binding protein and a downstream substrate of caspases. Additional research indicates that matrin 3 also binds Rev/Rev responsive element (RRE)-containing viral RNA and functions as a cofactor that mediates the post-transcriptional regulation of HIV-1.

RNA recognition motif 1 (RRM1) found in vertebrate regulator of differentiation 1 (Rod1); This subgroup corresponds to the RRM1 of ROD1 coding protein Rod1, a mammalian polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) homolog of a regulator of differentiation in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe, where the nrd1 gene encodes an RNA binding protein that negatively regulates the onset of differentiation. ROD1 is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells or organs. It might play a role controlling differentiation in mammals. Rod1 contains four repeats of RNA recognition motifs (RRM), also known as RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain) and does have RNA binding activities.

RNA recognition motif (RRM) found in heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein C (hnRNP C)-related proteins; This subfamily corresponds to the RRM in the hnRNP C-related protein family, including hnRNP C proteins, Raly, and Raly-like protein (RALYL). hnRNP C proteins, C1 and C2, are produced by a single coding sequence. They are the major constituents of the heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA) ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) complex in vertebrates. They bind hnRNA tightly, suggesting a central role in the formation of the ubiquitous hnRNP complex; they are involved in the packaging of the hnRNA in the nucleus and in processing of pre-mRNA such as splicing and 3'-end formation. Raly, also termed autoantigen p542, is an RNA-binding protein that may play a critical role in embryonic development. The biological role of RALYL remains unclear. It shows high sequence homology with hnRNP C proteins and Raly. Members of this family are characterized by an N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), and a C-terminal auxiliary domain. The Raly proteins contain a glycine/serine-rich stretch within the C-terminal regions, which is absent in the hnRNP C proteins. Thus, the Raly proteins represent a newly identified class of evolutionarily conserved autoepitopes.

RNA recognition motif 1 (RRM1) found in vertebrate polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 2 (PTBP2); This subgroup corresponds to the RRM1 of PTBP2, also known as neural polypyrimidine tract-binding protein or neurally-enriched homolog of PTB (nPTB), highly homologous to polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) and perhaps specific to the vertebrates. Unlike PTB, PTBP2 is enriched in the brain and in some neural cell lines. It binds more stably to the downstream control sequence (DCS) RNA than PTB does but is a weaker repressor of splicing in vitro. PTBP2 also greatly enhances the binding of two other proteins, heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) H and KH-type splicing-regulatory protein (KSRP), to the DCS RNA. The binding properties of PTBP2 and its reduced inhibitory activity on splicing imply roles in controlling the assembly of other splicing-regulatory proteins. PTBP2 contains four RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also known as RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain).
