“…We have previously shown that hnRNPA3 preferentially binds to G 4 C 2 and C 4 G 2 repeat RNAs (Mori, Lammich, et al, 2013; Nihei et al, 2020); hnRNPA3 was observed to frequently mislocalize to the cytoplasm, deviating from its physiological nuclear predominant distribution (Boeynaems et al, 2016; Davidson et al, 2017; Fifita et al, 2017; Mori, Lammich, et al, 2013), but hnRNPA3 does not seem to colocalize with RNA foci (Lee et al, 2013). Interestingly, hnRNPA3 suppresses the expression levels of the C9orf72 repeat RNA, through its RNA recognition motifs, and corresponding suppression of DPR expression was observed (Mori et al, 2016; Nihei et al, 2020; Taminato et al, 2023). Moreover, similar to hnRNPA3, expression of IGF2BP1, hnRNPA2B1, and SF3B3, which bind to G 4 C 2 repeat RNA, was found to reduce G 4 C 2 repeat RNA expression in a Drosophila model (Taminato et al, 2023) (Figure 3).…”
