Disease
REN3B_HUMAN FG syndrome;X-linked intellectual disability with marfanoid habitus;X-linked non-syndromic intellectual disability. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.[1]
Function
REN3B_HUMAN Involved in nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) of mRNAs containing premature stop codons by associating with the nuclear exon junction complex (EJC) and serving as link between the EJC core and NMD machinery. Recruits UPF2 at the cytoplasmic side of the nuclear envelope and the subsequent formation of an UPF1-UPF2-UPF3 surveillance complex (including UPF1 bound to release factors at the stalled ribosome) is believed to activate NMD. In cooperation with UPF2 stimulates both ATPase and RNA helicase activities of UPF1. Binds spliced mRNA upstream of exon-exon junctions. In vitro, stimulates translation; the function is independent of association with UPF2 and components of the EJC core.[2] [3] [4] [5] [6]
