Dimerization model of the C-terminal RNA Recognition Motif of HuR

Human antigen R (HuR) is a ubiquitous 32kDa protein comprising three RNA Recognition Motifs (RRMs), whose main function is to bind Adenylate and uridylate Rich Elements (AREs) in 3′ UnTranslated Regions (UTRs) of mRNAs. In addition to binding RNA molecules, the third domain (RRM3) is involved in HuR...
