Name | La related protein 1a | Brief Description | LA RNA-binding protein |
TAIR Computational Description | LA RNA-binding protein;(source:Araport11) |
TAIR Curator Summary | Encodes a protein with sequence similarity to mRNA binding proteins from humans. LARP1a is involved in mRNA degradation in response to heat stress. Upon heat stress LARP1a interacts with XRN4 and appears to be responsible for addressing XRN4 to the polysome. LARP1/XRN4 double mutants are impaired in thermotolerance and lower levels of heat induced RNA turnover. |
