| Abstract | CUG-BP1 [CUG-binding protein 1 also called CELF (CUG-BP1 and ETR3 like factors) 1] is a human RNA-binding protein that has been implicated in the control of splicing and mRNA translation. The Xenopus homologue [EDEN-BP (embryo deadenylation element-binding protein)] is required for rapid deadenylation of certain maternal mRNAs just after fertilization. A variety of sequence elements have been described as target sites for these two proteins but their binding specificity is still controversial. Using a SELEX (systematic evolution of ligand by exponential enrichment) procedure and recombinant CUG-BP1 we selected two families of aptamers. Surface plasmon resonance and electrophoretic mobility-shift assays showed that these two families differed in their ability to bind CUG-BP1. Furthermore, the selected high-affinity aptamers form two complexes with CUG-BP1 in electrophoretic mobility assays whereas those that bind with low affinity only form one complex. The validity of the distinction between the two families of aptamers was confirmed by a functional in vivo deadenylation assay. Only those aptamers that bound CUG-BP1 with high affinity conferred deadenylation on a reporter mRNA. These high-affinity RNAs are characterized by a richness in UGU motifs. Using these binding site characteristics we identified the Xenopus maternal mRNA encoding the MAPK (mitogen-activated protein kinase) phosphatase (XCl100α) as a substrate for EDEN-BP. In conclusion, high-affinity CUG-BP1 binding sites are sequence elements at least 30 nucleotides in length that are enriched in combinations of U and G nucleotides and contain at least 4 UGU trinucleotide motifs. Such sequence elements are functionally competent to target an RNA for deadenylation in vivo. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
