RBM5: Proteins and Enzymes

RNA-binding motif protein 5 (RBM5) is also known as LUCA-15. The RBM5 gene is located within a region highly susceptible to deletions in lung cancer and is implicated to be a tumor suppressor. RBM5 bears two RRM domains, one RanBP2-type zinc finger, one C2H2-type zinc finger, and a G-patch domain. It has been found to be a component of the spliceosome, a complex that regulates alternative splicing and is involved in the regulation of proliferation and apoptosis.
