Gene information for PCBP3 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID54039
Official gene symbolPCBP3
Full namepoly(rC) binding protein 3
Aliases,ALPHA-CP3,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the KH-domain protein subfamily. Proteins of this subfamily, also referred to as alpha-CPs, bind to RNA with a specificity for C-rich pyrimidine regions. Alpha-CPs play important roles in post-transcriptional activities and have different cellular distributions. This gene's protein is found in the cytoplasm, yet it lacks the nuclear localization signals found in other subfamily members. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. [provided by RefSeq]
