LARP1B
Molecular classification
RNA-binding protein, Translation regulator, Other (La-related protein family)
01

Overview

La ribonucleoprotein domain family member 1B (LARP1B) is a member of the La-related protein family of RNA-binding proteins, which are involved in various aspects of RNA metabolism. LARP1B shares significant sequence homology with LARP1, including the presence of a La domain, an RNA recognition motif, and a DM15 region. LARP1B has been implicated in the regulation of mRNA translation, impacting cell growth, differentiation, and proliferation[1][3]. Recent research suggests that circular RNA isoforms of the LARP1B gene (circ-LARP1B) act as regulators in cancer, specifically by sponging microRNAs to modulate oncogenic pathways, highlighting its emerging role in oncogenesis[3]. Detailed mechanistic roles of LARP1B in translation or disease remain less well studied than those of LARP1, but it is considered a potential therapeutic target due to its involvement in mRNA regulation and cancer biology.

Mechanism of action

Not well established for LARP1B specifically; other family members modulate translation via cap-binding and displacement of eIF4E from mRNA[1][2].
