Pumilio/fem-3 mRNA binding factor proteins are characterized by a sequence-specific RNA-binding domain. This unique single-stranded RNA recognition module, whose sequence specificity can be reprogrammed, has been fused with functional modules to engineer protein factors with various functions. We summarize the advances made with respect to developing RNA regulatory tools, as well as opportunities for the future.
Pumilio/fem-3 mRNA 结合因子蛋白的特征是具有序列特异性的 RNA 结合结构域。这个独特的单链 RNA 识别模块的序列特异性可以被重新编程,已经与功能模块融合,用于设计具有各种功能的蛋白质因子。我们总结了在开发 RNA 调控工具方面取得的进展,以及未来的机会。
