Summary: Enables mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity and pre-mRNA binding activity. Involved in circadian regulation of translation; entrainment of circadian clock by photoperiod; and regulation of nucleocytoplasmic transport. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including insulin secretion involved in cellular response to glucose stimulus; regulation of gene expression; and regulation of insulin receptor signaling pathway. Located in nucleolus and perinuclear region of cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human RBM4 (RNA binding motif protein 4). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

RBM4 depletion reduced the expression of the proneural gene Mash1, and such reduction was reversed by an RBM4-induced Numb isoform containing exon 3 but lacking exon 9. RBM4 was also essential for neurite outgrowth from cortical neurons in vitro. Neurite outgrowth defects of RBM4-depleted neurons were rescued by RBM4-induced exon 9-lacking Numb isoforms. RBM4 modulates exon selection of Numb.
Title: RBM4 promotes neuronal differentiation and neurite outgrowth by modulating Numb isoform expression.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
