Entry terms

  • Binding Protein, Cap
  • Binding Proteins, Cap
  • Cap Binding Protein
  • Cap Binding Proteins
  • mRNA Cap Binding Proteins
  • RNA Cap Binding Proteins

Scope note

  • Proteins that specifically bind to RNA CAPS and form nuclear cap binding protein complexes. In addition to stabilizing the 5' end of mRNAs, they serve a diverse array of functions such as enhancing mRNA transport out of the CELL NUCLEUS and regulating MRNA TRANSLATION in the CYTOPLASM.

History note

  • 2003; use RNA CAP-BINDING PROTEINS (NM) 1981-2002
