PABPC3, PABP3, PABPL3, Polyadenylate-binding protein 3, PABP-3, Poly(A)-binding protein 3, Testis-specific poly(A)-binding protein
Messenger RNA stability and translation initiation are extensively under the control of poly(A)-binding proteins (PABP). See PABPC1 (MIM 604679) for background information.[supplied by OMIM, Jul 2002],function:Binds the poly(A) tail of mRNA. May be involved in cytoplasmic regulatory processes of mRNA metabolism. Binds poly(A) with a slightly lower affinity as compared to PABPC1.,similarity:Belongs to the polyadenylate-binding protein type-1 family.,similarity:Contains 1 PABC domain.,similarity:Contains 4 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains.,tissue specificity:Testis specific.,
