Gene: CELF1
Alternate names for this Gene: BRUNOL2|CUG-BP|CUGBP|CUGBP1|EDEN-BP|NAB50|NAPOR|hNab50
Gene Summary: Members of the CELF/BRUNOL protein family contain two N-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM) domains, one C-terminal RRM domain, and a divergent segment of 160-230 aa between the second and third RRM domains. Members of this protein family regulate pre-mRNA alternative splicing and may also be involved in mRNA editing, and translation. This gene may play a role in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) via interactions with the dystrophia myotonica-protein kinase (DMPK) gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 11
Location in Chromosome : 11p11.2
Description of this Gene: CUGBP Elav-like family member 1
