Description

Despite high homology to nuclear hnRNP R, SYNCRIP localizes predominantly to the cytoplasm, but the molecular determinants of this differential subcellular targeting are unknown. This localization difference likely underlies distinct functional roles in RNA processing and could impact neuronal RNA metabolism.

Gap type: unexplained_observation Source paper: SYNCRIP, a cytoplasmic counterpart of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein R, interacts with ubiquitous synaptotagmin isoforms. (None, None, PMID:10734137)
