IPR024768

Description

IPR024768 is a Meiosis regulator and mRNA stability factor 1.

<p>Meiosis regulator and mRNA stability factor 1 (also known as meiosis arrest female protein 1, MARF1, or Limkain-b1) was first identified as a novel peroxisomal autoantigen that co-localizes with a subset of cytoplasmic microbodies marked by ABCD3 [[cite:PUB00056072]]. Later, it was found that it is an essential regulator of oogenesis required for female meiotic progression and retrotransposon surveillance, therefore, involved in the maintenance of genomic integrity. It acts as a RNAse that efficiently cleaves ssRNAs and down-regulates RNA transcripts, either at transcriptional or post-transcriptional level [[cite:PUB00068036], [cite:PUB00098862]]. It may function both as an adaptor to recruit specific RNA targets and an effector to catalyse the specific cleavages of target RNAs. MARF1 consists of three major domains, the N-terminal NYN domain, two RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) and a C-terminal repeat of LOTUS (also known as OST-HTH) domains.</p>

GO predictions are based solely on the InterPro-to-GO mappings published by EMBL-EBI, which are in turn based on the mapping of predicted domains to the InterPro dataset. The InterPro-to-GO mapping was last updated on , while the GO metadata was last updated on .

GO term Namespace Name Definition Relationships
Cellular component Peroxisome A small organelle enclosed by a single membrane, and found in most eukaryotic cells. Contains peroxidases and other enzymes involved in a variety of metabolic processes including free radical detoxification, lipid catabolism and biosynthesis, and hydrogen peroxide metabolism.
Biological process Regulation of gene expression Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of gene expression. Gene expression is the process in which a gene's coding sequence is converted into a mature gene product or products (proteins or RNA). This includes the production of an RNA transcript as well as any processing to produce a mature RNA product or an mRNA or circRNA (for protein-coding genes) and the translation of that mRNA or circRNA into protein. Protein maturation is included when required to form an active form of a product from an inactive precursor form.
