Density regulated re-initiation and release factor (DENR)

Target
DENR
Molecular classification
Translation factor, RNA-binding protein
01

Overview

DENR is a protein involved in the regulation of translation re-initiation during protein synthesis. It forms a heterodimeric complex with MCTS1, which binds to the 40S ribosomal subunit and facilitates tRNA recruitment. Elevated DENR levels are observed in cancer and correlated with poor prognosis, suggesting it as a potential therapeutic target.
