Evolution of the RNA alternative decay cis element into a high-affinity target for the immunomodulatory protein Roquin by Jan-Niklas Tants, Katharina Friedrich, Jasmina Neumann, Andreas Schlundt

“…In sum, our study sheds light on how the conserved Roquin protein selected ADE-specific structural features to evolve a second high-affinity mRNA target cis element relevant for adaptive immune regulation. As our findings also allow expanding the RNA target spectrum of Roquin, the approach can serve a paradigm for understanding RNA-protein specificity through back-tracing the evolution of the RNA element.…”
