Target Information

Gene Name
CIRBP
Gene ID
UniProt No.
Gene Function
Cold-inducible mRNA binding protein that plays a protective role in the genotoxic stress response by stabilizing transcripts of genes involved in cell survival. Acts as a translational activator. Seems to play an essential role in cold-induced suppression of cell proliferation. Binds specifically to the 3'-untranslated regions (3'-UTRs) of stress-responsive transcripts RPA2 and TXN. Acts as a translational repressor (By similarity). Promotes assembly of stress granules (SGs), when overexpressed.
Sequence Similarities
Contains 1 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain.
Post-translational Modifications
Methylated on arginine residues. Methylation of the RGG motifs is a prerequisite for recruitment into SGs.Phosphorylated by CK2, GSK3A and GSK3B. Phosphorylation by GSK3B increases RNA-binding activity to the TXN 3'-UTR transcript upon exposure to UV radiation.
