  ID: QKI_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Protein quaking; Short=Hqk; Short=HqkI;
FUNCTION: RNA-binding protein that plays a central role in myelinization. Binds to the 5'-NACUAAY-N(1,20)-UAAY-3' RNA core sequence. Acts by regulating pre-mRNA splicing, mRNA export, mRNA stability and protein translation. Required to protect and promote stability of mRNAs such as MBP and CDKN1B. Regulator of oligodendrocyte differentiation and maturation in the brain that may play a role in myelin and oligodendrocyte dysfunction in schizophrenia. Participates in mRNA transport by regulating the nuclear export of MBP mRNA. Also involved in regulation of mRNA splicing of MAG pre-mRNA. Acts as a translational repressor (By similarity).
SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Does not require RNA to homodimerize. Able to heterodimerize with BICC1 (By similarity).
INTERACTION: P61978:HNRNPK; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-945792, EBI-304185; Q15365:PCBP1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-945792, EBI-946095; P26599:PTBP1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-945792, EBI-350540; Q9NWB1:RBFOX1; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-945792, EBI-945906; O43251:RBFOX2; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-945792, EBI-746056; Q93062:RBPMS; NbExp=2; IntAct=EBI-945792, EBI-740322;
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus (By similarity). Cytoplasm (By similarity).
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the frontal cortex of brain. Down-regulated in the brain of schizophrenic patients.
PTM: Methylated by PRMT1 (By similarity).
PTM: Tyrosine phosphorylated at its C-terminus, probably by FYN. Phosphorylation leads to decreased mRNA-binding affinity, affecting transport and/or stabilization of MBP mRNA (By similarity).
SIMILARITY: Contains 1 KH domain.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
