They are single-stranded nucleic acid binding proteins that bind preferentially to oligo dC. They act as iron chaperones for ferritin. In case of infection by poliovirus, PCBP1 plays a role in initiation of viral RNA replication in concert with the viral protein 3CD. PCBP2 is a major cellular poly(rC)-binding protein. It also binds poly(rU). PCBP2 negatively regulates cellular antiviral responses mediated by MAVS signaling. It acts as an adapter between MAVS and the E3 ubiquitin ligase ITCH, therefore triggering MAVS ubiquitination and degradation. PCBP2 forms a metabolon with the heme oxygenase 1/cytochrome P450 reductase complex for heme catabolism and iron transfer. Both PCBP1 and PCBP2 contain three K-homology (KH) RNA-binding domains. The model corresponds to the second one.

K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain, type I; KH binds single-stranded RNA or DNA. It is found in a wide variety of proteins including ribosomal proteins, transcription factors and post-transcriptional modifiers of mRNA. There are two different KH domains that belong to different protein folds, but they share a single KH motif. The KH motif is folded into a beta alpha alpha beta unit. In addition to the core, type II KH domains (e.g. ribosomal protein S3) include an N-terminal extension and type I KH domains (e.g. hnRNP K) contain a C-terminal extension. Some KH-I superfamily members contain a divergent KH domain that lacks the RNA-binding GXXG motif. Some others have a mutated GXXG motif which may or may not have nucleic acid binding ability.

first type I K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain found in Arabidopsis thaliana RNA-binding KH domain-containing protein PEPPER and similar proteins; The family includes a group of plant RNA-binding KH domain-containing proteins, such as PEPPER, flowering locus K homology domain protein (FLK), RNA-binding KH domain-containing protein RCF3 and KH domain-containing protein HEN4. PEPPER regulates vegetative and gynoecium development. It acts as a positive regulator of the central floral repressor FLOWERING LOCUS C. In concert with HUA2, PEPPER antagonizes FLK by positively regulating FLC probably at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, and thus acts as a negative regulator of flowering. FLK, also called flowering locus KH domain protein, regulates positively flowering by repressing FLC expression and post-transcriptional modification. PEPPER and FLK contain three K-homology (KH) RNA-binding domains. RCF3, also called protein ENHANCED STRESS RESPONSE 1 (ESR1), or protein HIGH OSMOTIC STRESS GENE EXPRESSION 5 (HOS5), or protein REGULATOR OF CBF GENE EXPRESSION 3, or protein SHINY 1 (SHI1), acts as negative regulator of osmotic stress-induced gene expression. It is involved in the regulation of thermotolerance responses under heat stress. It functions as an upstream regulator of heat stress transcription factor (HSF) genes. HEN4, also called protein HUA ENHANCER 4, plays a role in floral reproductive organ identity in the third whorl and floral determinacy specification by specifically promoting the processing of AGAMOUS (AG) pre-mRNA. It functions in association with HUA1 and HUA2. RCF3 and HEN4 contain five KH RNA-binding domains. The model corresponds to the KH1 domain of PEPPER and FLK, as well as KH1 and KH3 domains of RCF3 and HEN4.

type I K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain found in Mask family proteins; The Mask family includes Drosophila melanogaster ankyrin repeat and KH domain-containing protein Mask, and its mammalian homologues Mask1/ANKHD1 and Mask2/ANKRD17. Mask, also called multiple ankyrin repeat single KH domain-containing protein, is a large ankyrin repeat and KH domain-containing protein involved in Drosophila receptor tyrosine kinase signaling. It acts as a mediator of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) signaling and may act either downstream of MAPK or transduce signaling through a parallel branch of the RTK pathway. Mask is required for the development and organization of indirect flight muscle sarcomeres by regulating the formation of M line and H zone and the correct assembly of thick and thin filaments in the sarcomere. Mask1/ANKHD1, also called HIV-1 Vpr-binding ankyrin repeat protein, or multiple ankyrin repeats single KH domain, or Hmask, is highly expressed in various cancer tissues and is involved in cancer progression, including proliferation and invasion. Mask2/ANKRD17, also called ankyrin repeat protein 17, or gene trap ankyrin repeat protein (GTAR), or serologically defined breast cancer antigen NY-BR-16, is a ubiquitously expressed ankyrin factor essential for the vascular integrity during embryogenesis. It may be directly involved in the DNA replication process and play pivotal roles in cell cycle and DNA regulation. It is also involved in innate immune defense against bacteria and viruses.

first type I K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain found in Arabidopsis thaliana RNA-binding KH domain-containing protein PEPPER and similar proteins; The family includes a group of plant RNA-binding KH domain-containing proteins, such as PEPPER, flowering locus K homology domain protein (FLK), RNA-binding KH domain-containing protein RCF3 and KH domain-containing protein HEN4. PEPPER regulates vegetative and gynoecium development. It acts as a positive regulator of the central floral repressor FLOWERING LOCUS C. In concert with HUA2, PEPPER antagonizes FLK by positively regulating FLC probably at transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, and thus acts as a negative regulator of flowering. FLK, also called flowering locus KH domain protein, regulates positively flowering by repressing FLC expression and post-transcriptional modification. PEPPER and FLK contain three K-homology (KH) RNA-binding domains. RCF3, also called protein ENHANCED STRESS RESPONSE 1 (ESR1), or protein HIGH OSMOTIC STRESS GENE EXPRESSION 5 (HOS5), or protein REGULATOR OF CBF GENE EXPRESSION 3, or protein SHINY 1 (SHI1), acts as negative regulator of osmotic stress-induced gene expression. It is involved in the regulation of thermotolerance responses under heat stress. It functions as an upstream regulator of heat stress transcription factor (HSF) genes. HEN4, also called protein HUA ENHANCER 4, plays a role in floral reproductive organ identity in the third whorl and floral determinacy specification by specifically promoting the processing of AGAMOUS (AG) pre-mRNA. It functions in association with HUA1 and HUA2. RCF3 and HEN4 contain five KH RNA-binding domains. The model corresponds to the KH1 domain of PEPPER and FLK, as well as KH1 and KH3 domains of RCF3 and HEN4.

FUBP1, also called FBP, or FUSE-binding protein 1, or DNA helicase V, or DH V, binds RNA and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and may act both as activator and repressor of transcription. It regulates MYC expression by binding to a single-stranded far-upstream element (FUSE) upstream of the MYC promoter. FUBP2, also called FUSE-binding protein 2, or KH type-splicing regulatory protein (KSRP), or p75, is a single-strand nucleic acid binding protein implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including splicing in the nucleus, mRNA decay, maturation of miRNA, and transcriptional control of proto-oncogenes such as c-myc. It regulates the stability and/or translatability of many mRNA species, encoding immune-relevant proteins, either by binding to AU-rich elements (AREs) of mRNA 3'UTR or by facilitating miRNA biogenesis to target mRNA. FUBP3, also called FUSE-binding protein 3, or MARTA2, was previously shown to mediate dendritic targeting of MAP2 mRNA in neurons. It may interact with single-stranded DNA from the far-upstream element (FUSE) and activate gene expression. It is required for beta-actin mRNA localization. It also interacts with fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9) 3'-UTR UG repeats and positively controls FGF9 expression through increasing translation of FGF9 mRNA. FUBP proteins contain four K-homology (KH) RNA-binding domains. The model corresponds to the first one.

fourth type I K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain found in the FUBP family RNA/DNA-binding proteins; The far upstream element-binding protein (FUBP) family includes FUBP1-3. FUBP1, also called FBP, or FUSE-binding protein 1, or DNA helicase V, or DH V, binds RNA and single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and may act both as activator and repressor of transcription. It regulates MYC expression by binding to a single-stranded far-upstream element (FUSE) upstream of the MYC promoter. FUBP2, also called FUSE-binding protein 2, or KH type-splicing regulatory protein (KSRP), or p75, is a single-strand nucleic acid binding protein implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including splicing in the nucleus, mRNA decay, maturation of miRNA, and transcriptional control of proto-oncogenes such as c-myc. It regulates the stability and/or translatability of many mRNA species, encoding immune-relevant proteins, either by binding to AU-rich elements (AREs) of mRNA 3'UTR or by facilitating miRNA biogenesis to target mRNA. FUBP3, also called FUSE-binding protein 3, or MARTA2, was previously shown to mediate dendritic targeting of MAP2 mRNA in neurons. It may interact with single-stranded DNA from the far-upstream element (FUSE) and activate gene expression. It is required for beta-actin mRNA localization. It also interacts with fibroblast growth factor 9 (FGF9) 3'-UTR UG repeats and positively controls FGF9 expression through increasing translation of FGF9 mRNA. FUBP proteins contain four K-homology (KH) RNA-binding domains. The model corresponds to the fourth one.

sixth type I K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain found in vigilin and similar proteins; Vigilin, also called high density lipoprotein-binding protein, or HDL-binding protein, is a ubiquitous and highly conserved RNA-binding protein that shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm presumably in contact with RNA molecules. It may be involved in chromosome partitioning at mitosis, facilitating translation and tRNA transport, and control of mRNA metabolism, including estrogen-mediated stabilization of vitellogenin mRNA. Vigilin is up-regulated by cholesterol loading of cells and functions to protect cells from over-accumulation of cholesterol. It may play a role in cell sterol metabolism. Disruption of human vigilin impairs chromosome condensation and segregation. Vigilin has a unique structure of 14-15 consecutively arranged, but non-identical K-homology (KH) domains which apparently mediate RNA-protein binding. The model corresponds to the sixth one.

first type I K homology (KH) RNA-binding domain found in tudor and KH domain-containing protein (TDRKH) and similar proteins; TDRKH, also called tudor domain-containing protein 2 (TDRD2), is a mitochondria-anchored RNA-binding protein that is required for spermatogenesis and involved in piRNA biogenesis. It specifically recruits MIWI, but not MILI, to engage the piRNA pathway. TDRKH contains two K-homology (KH) RNA-binding domains and one tudor domain, which are involved in binding to RNA or single-strand DNA. The model corresponds to the first one.
