The essential spliceosomal protein Prp8 interacts with U5 and U6 snRNAs and with specific pre-mRNA sequences that participate in catalysis [1]. This close association with crucial RNA sequences, together with extensive genetic evidence, suggests that Prp8 could directly affect the function of the catalytic core, perhaps acting as a splicing cofactor [2].

The large RNA-protein complex of the spliceosome catalyses pre-mRNA splicing. One of the most conserved core proteins is PrP8 which occupies a central position in the catalytic core of the spliceosome, and has been implicated in several crucial molecular rearrangements that occur there, and has recently come under the spotlight for its role in the inherited human disease, Retinitis Pigmentosa [1]. The RNA-recognition motif of PrP8 is highly conserved and provides a possible RNA binding centre for the 5-prime SS, BP, or 3-prime SS of pre-mRNA which are known to contact with Prp8. The most conserved regions of an RRM are defined as the RNP1 and RNP2 sequences. Recognition of RNA targets can also be modulated by a number of other factors, most notably the two loops beta1-alpha1, beta2-beta3 and the amino acid residues C-terminal to the RNP2 domain [2].
This domain incorporates the interacting site for the U6-snRNA as part of the U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNPs complex of the spliceosome, and is the prime candidate for the role of cofactor for the spliceosome's RNA core. The essential spliceosomal protein Prp8 ...

Proteins with this domain are found in proteasome regulatory subunits, eukaryotic initiation factor 3 (eIF3) subunits and regulators of transcription factors. This domain is known as the MPN domain [3] and PAD-1-like domain [4], JABP1 domain [5] or JAMM domain [7]. These are metalloenzymes that function as the ubiquitin isopeptidase/ deubiquitinase in the ubiquitin-based signalling and protein turnover pathways in eukaryotes [7]. Versions of the domain in prokaryotic cognates of the ubiquitin-modification pathway are shown to have a similar role, and the archaeal protein from Haloferax volcanii is found to cleave ubiquitin-like small archaeal modifier proteins (SAMP1/2) from protein conjugates [8,9].

The RRM motif (a.k.a. RRM, RBD, or RNP domain) is probably diagnostic of an RNA binding protein. RRMs are found in a variety of RNA binding proteins, including various hnRNP proteins, proteins implicated in regulation of alternative splicing, and protein components of snRNPs. The motif also appears in a few single stranded DNA binding proteins. The RRM structure consists of four strands and two helices arranged in an alpha/beta sandwich, with a third helix present during RNA binding in some cases The C-terminal beta strand (4th strand) and final helix are hard to align and have been omitted in the SEED alignment The LA proteins (Swiss:P05455) have an N terminal rrm which is included in the seed. There is a second region towards the C terminus that has some features characteristic of a rrm but does not appear to have the important structural core of a rrm. The LA proteins (Swiss:P05455) are one of the main autoantigens in Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease.

The peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases, also known as cyclophilins, share this domain of about 109 amino acids. Cyclophilins have been found in all organisms studied so far and catalyse peptidyl-prolyl isomerisation during which the peptide bond preceding proline (the peptidyl-prolyl bond) is stabilised in the cis conformation. Mammalian cyclophilin A (CypA) is a major cellular target for the immunosuppressive drug cyclosporin A (CsA). Other roles for cyclophilins may include chaperone and cell signalling function [1].

This domain can be found at the C terminus of the human KIN17 protein and its homologues. In human cells, over-expression of KIN17 modifies the nuclear morphology and inhibits S-phase progression, thus blocking cell growth as part of the response to genotoxic stress. The C-terminal domain exhibits an all-beta structure consisting of two tightly packed SH3-like subdomains, the first one represented in this entry. This domain has structural similarity with various SH3-like domains, although it lacks similarities in both primary sequence and charge distribution [1].
