“…34,[44][45][46] RRM3 is involved in binding long poly-A tails of mRNAs [47][48][49] and in catalyzing the 3 0 -terminal adenosyl modification of non-polyadenylated RNA substrates. 50 Besides its role in RNA recognition, RRM3 is also responsible for the formation of HuR multimers, 34 as occurs with the homologous Drosophila ELAV protein. 51 In fact, mutations in the RRM3 domain of Drosophila ELAV protein lead to a temperature-sensitive phenotype by impairing HuR oligomerization, highlighting the crucial role of this RRM module.…”
