The post-transcriptional regulation of gene
expression by RNA-binding proteins is an important element in
controlling both normal cell functions and animal development. The
diverse roles are demonstrated by the Elav family of RNA-binding
proteins, where various members have been shown to regulate several
processes involving mRNA. We have identified another family of
RNA-binding proteins distantly related to the Elav family but closely
related to Bruno, a translational regulator in Drosophila
melanogaster. In humans, six Bruno-like genes have been
identified, whereas other species such as Drosophila,
Xenopus laevis, and Caenorhabditis elegans have
at least two members of this family, and related genes have also been
detected in plants and ascidians. The human BRUNOL2 and BRUNOL3 are
92% identical in the RNA-binding domains, although the
BRUNOL2 gene is expressed ubiquitously whereas
BRUNOL3 is expressed predominantly in the heart, muscle,
and nervous system. Both of these proteins bind the same target RNA,
the Bruno response element. The RNA-binding domain that recognizes the
Bruno response element is composed of two consecutive RNA recognition
motifs at the amino terminus of vertebrate Bruno protein. The possible involvement of the Bruno family of proteins in the CUG repeat expansion
disease myotonic dystrophy is discussed.
