A census of human RNA-binding proteins.
TL;DR: This work presents a census of 1,542 manually curated RBPs that are analysed for their interactions with different classes of RNA, their evolutionary conservation, their abundance and their tissue-specific expression, a critical step towards the comprehensive characterization of proteins involved in human RNA metabolism.

Abstract: Post-transcriptional gene regulation (PTGR) concerns processes involved in the maturation, transport, stability and translation of coding and non-coding RNAs. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) and ribonucleoproteins coordinate RNA processing and PTGR. The introduction of large-scale quantitative methods, such as next-generation sequencing and modern protein mass spectrometry, has renewed interest in the investigation of PTGR and the protein factors involved at a systems-biology level. Here, we present a census of 1,542 manually curated RBPs that we have analysed for their interactions with different classes of RNA, their evolutionary conservation, their abundance and their tissue-specific expression. Our analysis is a critical step towards the comprehensive characterization of proteins involved in human RNA metabolism.

TL;DR: The results reveal an unexpected role for CDC-like kinase in conjoined gene formation, via regulation of 3′-end processing and associated splicing factors, using a novel small molecule (T3) with very high potency, selectivity, and cell-based stability.

TL;DR: Functional analyses revealed that CNBP binding did not influence target mRNA abundance but rather increased their translational efficiency, and it is hypothesize that CN BP is supporting translation by resolving stable structures on mRNAs.

TL;DR: It is revealed that IGF2BP1 is a post-transcriptional enhancer of the E2F-driven hallmark in solid cancers, and the small molecule BTYNB disrupts this enhancer function by impairing IGF2 BP1-RNA association.
