Background Information
Polypyrimidine tract-binding protein (PTBP1), also known as heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein type I (hnRNP I), is a nuclear protein that binds pre-mRNAs in specific regions of the hnRNA-protein complexes sensitive to micrococcal nuclease. It involves in pre-mRNA splicing and the regulation of alternative splicing events. PTBP1 promotes RNA looping when bound to two separate polypyrimidine tracts in the same pre-mRNA, and promotes the binding of U2 snRNP to pre-mRNA. Besides, it can cooperate with RAVER1 to modulate switching between mutually exclusive exons during maturation of the TPM1 pre-mRNA, and represses the splicing of MAPT/Tau exon 10.
