Background
This gene encodes a CCCH-type zinc finger protein that is thought to prevent infection by retroviruses. Studies of the rat homolog indicate that the protein may primarily function to inhibit viral gene expression and induce an innate immunity to viral infection. Alternative splicing occurs at this locus and two variants, each encoding distinct isoforms, are described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
domain:The second and fourth zinc fingers are involved in binding to specific viral RNAs.,function:Induces an innate immunity to viral infections by preventing the accumulation of viral RNAs in the cytoplasm. Seems to recruit the RNA processing exosome to degrade the target RNAs. Inhibits alphavirus and filovirus replication.,similarity:Contains 1 PARP catalytic domain.,similarity:Contains 1 WWE domain.,similarity:Contains 4 C3H1-type zinc fingers.,subcellular location:Localizes in the cytoplasm at steady state, but shuttles between nucleus and cytoplasm in a XPO1-dependent manner.,subunit:Interacts with EXOSC5.,
