RNA recognition motif (RRM) found in vertebrate trinucleotide repeat-containing gene 6C protein (TNRC6C); This subgroup corresponds to the RRM of TNRC6C, one of three GW182 paralogs in mammalian genomes. It is enriched in P-bodies and important for efficient miRNA-mediated repression. TNRC6C is composed of an N-terminal glycine/tryptophan (G/W)-rich region containing an Ago hook responsible for Ago protein-binding; a ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain and a glutamine (Q)-rich region in the middle region; a middle G/W-rich region, a RNA recognition motif (RRM), also termed RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain), and a C-terminal G/W-rich region, at the C-terminus. A bipartite C-terminal region including the middle and C-terminal G/W-rich regions is referred as silencing domain that triggers silencing of bound transcripts by inhibiting protein expression and promoting mRNA decay via deadenylation. The C-terminal half containing the RRM domain functions as a key effector domain mediating protein synthesis repression by TNRC6C.

UBA/TS-N domain; This small domain is composed of three alpha helices. This family includes the previously defined UBA and TS-N domains. The UBA-domain (ubiquitin associated domain) is a novel sequence motif found in several proteins having connections to ubiquitin and the ubiquitination pathway. The structure of the UBA domain consists of a compact three helix bundle. This domain is found at the N terminus of EF-TS hence the name TS-N. The structure of EF-TS is known and this domain is implicated in its interaction with EF-TU. The domain has been found in non EF-TS proteins such as alpha-NAC and MJ0280.

RNA recognition motif. (a.k.a. RRM, RBD, or RNP domain); The RRM motif 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 have an N terminal rrm which is included in the seed. There is a second region towards the C terminus that has some features characteriztic of a rrm but does not appear to have the important structural core of a rrm. The LA proteins are one of the main autoantigens in Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), an autoimmune disease.

TNRC6B directly interacts with Argonaute (Ago) proteins through its N-terminal glycine/tryptophan (G/W)-rich region that is called Ago protein-binding domain. TNRC6B is enriched in P-bodies and its Q-rich domain is responsible for P-body localization. A bipartite C-terminal region including the middle and C-terminal G/W-rich regions is referred as silencing domain that triggers silencing of bound transcripts by inhibiting protein expression and promoting mRNA decay via deadenylation. The C-terminal half of TNRC6B comprising an RRM domain exerts a strong translation inhibition potential, which does not require either association with Agos or localization to P-bodies.

UBA domain found in proteins involved in ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis; The ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domains are commonly occurring sequence motifs found in proteins involved in ubiquitin-mediated proteolysis. They contribute to ubiquitin (Ub) binding or ubiquitin-like (UbL) domain binding. However, some kinds of UBA domains can only the bind UbL domain, but not the Ub domain. UBA domains are normally comprised of compact three-helix bundles which contain a conserved GF/Y-loop. They can bind polyubiquitin with high affinity. They also bind monoubiquitin and other proteins. Most UBA domain-containing proteins have one UBA domain, but some harbor two or three UBA domains.

UBA domain found in a putative ubiquitin conjugating enzyme from plasmodium Yoelii (pyUCE) and similar proteins; P. Yoelii ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme and other uncharacterized family members show high sequence similarity to the human Huntingtin interacting protein-2 (HIP2) which belongs to a class II E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme family. These proteins may play roles in the ubiquitin-mediated protein degradation pathway. They all contain a C-terminal ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain in addition to an N-terminal catalytic ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme E2 (UBCc) domain.

UBA domain found in Drosophila melanogaster protein Gawky (GW) and similar proteins; GW is the D. melanogaster GW182 homolog (dGW182) which belongs to the GW182 protein family. The GW182 proteins directly interact with Argonaute (Ago) proteins, and thus function as downstream effectors in the miRNA pathway, responsible for inhibition of translation and acceleration of mRNA decay. They are characterized by an abnormally high content of glycine/tryptophan (G/W) repeats, one or more glutamine (Q)-rich motifs, and a C-terminal RNA recognition motif (RRM), also called RBD (RNA binding domain) or RNP (ribonucleoprotein domain). The GW182 proteins are recruited to miRNA targets through an interaction between their N-terminal domain and an Argonaute protein. Then they promote translational repression and/or degradation of miRNA targets through their C-terminal silencing domain. In addition to a G/W repeats region, a Q-rich region, and a RRM domain, GW also contains a ubiquitin-associated domain (UBA).

UBA domain of Tudor domain-containing protein 3 (TDRD3) and similar proteins; TDRD3 is a modular protein containing Tudor domain, a DUF/OB-fold motif and a ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain. It shows both nucleic acid- and methyl-binding properties and can interact with methylated RNA-binding proteins, such as fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP) and DEAD/H box-3 (also known as DDX3X/Y, DBX/Y, HLP2 and DDX14) which is implicated in human genetic diseases. At this point, TDRD3 may play a central role in RNA processing regulatory pathways involving arginine methylation. TDRD3 localizes predominantly to the cytoplasm stress granules (SGs). The Tudor domain is essential and sufficient for its recruitment to SGs.

UBA1 domain found in Arabidopsis thaliana ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase 14 (atUBP14) and similar proteins; atUBP14, also called deubiquitinating enzyme 14, TITAN-6 protein, ubiquitin thioesterase 14, or ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 14, is related to the isopeptidase T class of deubiquitinating enzymes that recycle polyubiquitin chains following protein degradation. atUBP14 is essential for early plant development. It can disassemble multi-ubiquitin chains linked internally via epsilon-amino isopeptide bonds using Lys48 and can process some, but not all, translational fusions of ubiquitin linked via alpha-amino peptide bonds. atUBP14 contains two ubiquitin-association (UBA) domains. This model corresponds to the UBA1 domain.

UBA/TS-N domain; This small domain is composed of three alpha helices. This family includes the previously defined UBA and TS-N domains. The UBA-domain (ubiquitin associated domain) is a novel sequence motif found in several proteins having connections to ubiquitin and the ubiquitination pathway. The structure of the UBA domain consists of a compact three helix bundle. This domain is found at the N terminus of EF-TS hence the name TS-N. The structure of EF-TS is known and this domain is implicated in its interaction with EF-TU. The domain has been found in non EF-TS proteins such as alpha-NAC and MJ0280.

It binds polyubiquitin and valosin-containing protein (VCP), and has been identified as a substrate for stress-activated protein kinases (SAPKs). Moreover, UBXN1 specifically binds to Homer2b. It may also interact with ubiquitin (Ub) and may be involved in the Ub-proteasome proteolytic pathways. In addition, UBXN1 can associate with autoubiquitinated BRCA1 tumor suppressor and inhibit its enzymatic function through its UBA domain.

UBA1 domain found in ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase UBP5, UBP13 and similar proteins; UBP5, also called deubiquitinating enzyme 5, Isopeptidase T (IsoT), ubiquitin thioesterase 5, or ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 5, is a deubiquitinating enzyme largely responsible for the disassembly of the majority of unanchored polyubiquitin in the cell. Zinc is required for its catalytic activity. UBP5 contains four ubiquitin (Ub)-binding sites including an N-terminal zinc finger (ZnF) domain, a catalytic ubiquitin-specific processing protease (UBP) domain (catalytic C-box and H-box), and two ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domains. ZnF domain binds the proximal ubiquitin. UBP domain forms the active site. UBA domains are involved in binding linear or K48-linked polyubiquitin. UBP13, also called deubiquitinating enzyme 13, Isopeptidase T-3 (isoT3), ubiquitin thioesterase 13, or ubiquitin-specific-processing protease 13, is an ortholog of UBP5. It has similar domain architecture, but functions differently from USP5 in cellular deubiquitination processes. It exhibits a weak deubiquitinating activity preferring to Lys63-linked polyubiquitin in a non-activation manner. Moreover, the zinc finger (ZnF) domain of USP13 cannot bind to Ub. Its tandem UBA domains can bind with different types of diUb but preferentially with K63-linked.USP13 can also regulate the protein level of CD3delta in cells via its UBA domains. This model corresponds to the UBA1 domain.

RNA recognition motif 2 (RRM2) found in RNA-binding protein 28 (RBM28) and similar proteins; This subfamily corresponds to the RRM2 of RBM28 and Nop4p. RBM28 is a specific nucleolar component of the spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), possibly coordinating their transition through the nucleolus. It specifically associates with U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), and may play a role in the maturation of both small nuclear and ribosomal RNAs. RBM28 has four RNA recognition motifs (RRMs), also termed RBDs (RNA binding domains) or RNPs (ribonucleoprotein domains), and an extremely acidic region between RRM2 and RRM3. The family also includes nucleolar protein 4 (Nop4p or Nop77p) encoded by YPL043W from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is an essential nucleolar protein involved in processing and maturation of 27S pre-rRNA and biogenesis of 60S ribosomal subunits. Nop4p also contains four RRMs.

UBA domain found in plant PNGase/UBA or UBX (PUB) domain-containing proteins; This family includes some uncharacterized hypothetical proteins found in plants. Although their biological function remain unclear, all family members contain an N-terminal ubiquitin-associated (UBA) domain and a C-terminal PUB domain. UBA domain, along with UBL (ubiquitin-like) domain, has been implicated in proteasomal degradation by associating with substrates destined for degradation as well as with subunits of the proteasome, thus regulating protein turnover. PUB domain functions as a p97 (also known as valosin-containing protein or VCP) adaptor by interacting with the D1 and/or D2 ATPase domains. The type II AAA+ ATPase p97 is involved in a variety of cellular processes such as the deglycosylation of ERAD substrates, membrane fusion, transcription factor activation and cell cycle regulation through differential binding to specific adaptor proteins.
