Gene information for HNRNPR (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10236
Official gene symbolHNRNPR
Full nameheterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein R
Aliases,FLJ25714,HNRPR,hnRNP R,hnRNP-R,
Gene summaryThis gene belongs to the subfamily of ubiquitously expressed heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs). The hnRNPs are RNA binding proteins and they complex with heterogeneous nuclear RNA (hnRNA). These proteins are associated with pre-mRNAs in the nucleus and appear to influence pre-mRNA processing and other aspects of mRNA metabolism and transport. While all of the hnRNPs are present in the nucleus, some seem to shuttle between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. The hnRNP proteins have distinct nucleic acid binding properties. The protein encoded by this gene has three repeats of quasi-RRM domains that bind to RNAs and also contains a nuclear localization motif. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq]
