    basic FUNCTION
  • developmental regulator controlling mRNA stability and translation
  • could also play an important role in translational regulation of embryogenesis and cell development and differentiation (Spassov 2002)
  • PUM1 and PUM2 repress the translation of E2F3 by binding to the E2F3 3prime untranslated region (UTR) and also enhance the activity of multiple E2F3 targeting microRNAs
  • PUM1, PUM2 regulates the translation of the voltage-gated sodium conductance, leading to a concomitant adjustment in action potential firing
  • PUM1, PUM2 are potent repressors that serve important roles in stem cell maintenance, neurological processes, and embryonic development
  • conserved function of the PUM1, PUM2 RBD is to bind specific mRNAs, antagonize PABPC1 function, and promote deadenylation
  • PUM1, PUM2 increased double-stranded (ds) RNA binding affinity of DHX58, and likely facilitates viral RNA recognition by DHX58 through its chaperon-like function
  • plays an important role in the establishment of the primordial follicle pool, meiosis, and female reproductive competency
  • PUM1 promotes the development and progression of ovarian cancer
  • PUM1, PUM2 bind an extensive network of mRNAs and repress protein expression by inhibiting translation and promoting mRNA decay
  • PUM1 is essential in the process of cytoplasmic maturation and developmental competence of the oocyte, which reveal an important function of maternal PUM1 as a post-transcriptional regulator during mammalian embryogenesis
  • distinct roles of individual mammalian PUM1, PUM2 in embryonic stem cells (ESCs), having essential functions in ESC pluripotency and embryogenesis
  • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, editing
    protein, translation/synthesis

    protein
  • PUM1 and PUM2 repress the translation of E2F3 by binding to the E2F3 3prime untranslated region (UTR) and also enhance the activity of multiple E2F3 targeting microRNAs
  • RNA-binding protein PUMILIO1 (PUM1) not only directly regulates ATXN1 but also plays an unexpectedly important role in neuronal function
  • RBFOX1 targets PUM1 mRNA for destabilization and translational silencing, thereby promoting germ cell development
  • facilitates the transition of the late meiotic prophase I oocyte from pachytene to diplotene stage by regulating SYCP1 protein
  • PUM1 regulates HOTAIR expression via a posttranscriptional mechanism
  • critical role of PUM1 mediated translational control, particularly the PUM1-CDKN1B axis, in prostate cancer cell growth and tumorigenesis
  • PUM1 could bind to the 3'-untranslated region of low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 (LRP6) mRNA, resulting in reduced expression of LRP6 mRNA and protein
  • PUM1 regulates the growth and mobility of extravillous trophoblast cells (EVTs) by modulating LRP6 expression
