Method: Solution NMR Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function PTBP1_HUMAN Plays a role in pre-mRNA splicing and in the regulation of alternative splicing events. Activates exon skipping of its own pre-mRNA during muscle cell differentiation. Binds to the polypyrimidine tract of introns. May promote RNA looping when bound to two separate polypyrimidine tracts in the same pre-mRNA. May promote the binding of U2 snRNP to pre-mRNA. Cooperates with RAVER1 to modulate switching between mutually exclusive exons during maturation of the TPM1 pre-mRNA. Represses the splicing of MAPT/Tau exon 10.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The polypyrimidine tract binding protein (PTB) is an important regulator of alternative splicing that also affects mRNA localization, stabilization, polyadenylation, and translation. NMR structural analysis of the N-terminal half of PTB (residues 55-301) shows a canonical structure for RRM1 but reveals novel extensions to the beta strands and C terminus of RRM2 that significantly modify the beta sheet RNA binding surface. Although PTB contains four RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), it is widely held that only RRMs 3 and 4 are involved in RNA binding and that RRM2 mediates homodimerization. However, we show here not only that the RRMs 1 and 2 contribute substantially to RNA binding but also that full-length PTB is monomeric, with an elongated structure determined by X-ray solution scattering that is consistent with a linear arrangement of the constituent RRMs. These new insights into the structure and RNA binding properties of PTB suggest revised models of its mechanism of action.
