    basic FUNCTION
  • involved in the regulation of alternative splicing by nucleic acid binding activity
  • implicated in two major post-transcriptional regulatory processes, namely the alternative splicing and the control of translation and stability of target mRNAs
  • CELF4 plays a specific role in regulating excitatory neurotransmission
  • is critical for maintaining mRNA stability and availability for translation
  • RNA-binding protein that links to RNA subsets involved in pre- and postsynaptic neurotransmission including almost 30p100 of potential autism-related genes
  • potential role for CELF4 in brain development and autism spectrum disorders
  • CELLULAR PROCESS nucleotide, RNA splicing

    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • mice deficient for neuronal RNA-binding protein Celf4 have a complex neurological disorder with epilepsy as a prominent feature
  • altered excitatory neurotransmission resulting from Celf4 deficiency underlies the complex seizure disorder in Celf4 mutant mice
