Hnrnpk

The protein encoded by this gene is a component of the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) complex, and is a poly-cytosine binding protein (PCBP). It is found in multiple subcellular compartments including the nucleus, cytoplasm and mitochondria. This gene product is thought to interact with RNA, DNA, and protein, and is involved in multiple cellular processes, including transcription, chromatin remodeling, DNA damage response, signal transduction, mRNA splicing, export, and translation. Multiple transcript variants and protein isoforms exist, with some isoforms containing a unique C-terminus. There are four pseudogenes of this gene, found on chromosomes 2, 3, 7 and 13.

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Hnrnpk often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
