May be involved in cytoplasmic regulatory processes of mRNA metabolism such as pre-mRNA splicing. Its function in translational initiation regulation can either be enhanced by PAIP1 or repressed by PAIP2. Can probably bind to cytoplasmic RNA sequences other than poly(A) in vivo. Involved in translationally coupled mRNA turnover. Implicated with other RNA-binding proteins in the cytoplasmic deadenylation/translational and decay interplay of the FOS mRNA mediated by the major coding-region determinant of instability (mCRD) domain. Involved in regulation of nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) of mRNAs containing premature stop codons; for the recognition of premature termination codons (PTC) and initiation of NMD a competitive interaction between UPF1 and PABPC1 with the ribosome-bound release factors is proposed.

Publication Abstract from PubMed Poly(A)-binding protein (PABPC1) is involved in multiple aspects of mRNA processing and translation. It is a component of RNA stress granules and binds the RNA-induced silencing complex to promote degradation of silenced mRNAs. Here, we report the crystal structures of the C-terminal Mlle (or PABC) domain in complex with peptides from GW182 (TNRC6C) and Ataxin-2. The structures reveal overlapping binding sites but with unexpected diversity in the peptide conformation and residues involved in binding. The mutagenesis and binding studies show low to submicromolar binding affinity with overlapping but distinct specificity determinants. These results rationalize the role of the Mlle domain of PABPC1 in microRNA-mediated mRNA deadenylation and suggest a more general function in the assembly of cytoplasmic RNA granules.
