RNA helicase that acts as a sensor of the transcriptional status of both RNA polymerase (Pol) I and II: promotes ribosomal RNA (rRNA) processing and transcription from polymerase II (Pol II) (PubMed:25470060, PubMed:28790157). Binds various RNAs, such as rRNAs, snoRNAs, 7SK and, at lower extent, mRNAs (PubMed:25470060). In the nucleolus, localizes to rDNA locus, where it directly binds rRNAs and snoRNAs, and promotes rRNA transcription, processing and modification. Required for rRNA 2'-O-methylation, possibly by promoting the recruitment of late-acting snoRNAs SNORD56 and SNORD58 with pre-ribosomal complexes (PubMed:25470060, PubMed:25477391). In the nucleoplasm, binds 7SK RNA and is recruited to the promoters of Pol II-transcribed genes: acts by facilitating the release of P-TEFb from inhibitory 7SK snRNP in a manner that is dependent on its helicase activity, thereby promoting transcription of its target genes (PubMed:25470060). Functions as a cofactor for JUN-activated transcription: required for phosphorylation of JUN at 'Ser-77' (PubMed:11823437, PubMed:25260534). Can unwind double-stranded RNA (helicase) and can fold or introduce a secondary structure to a single-stranded RNA (foldase) (PubMed:9461305). Together with SIRT7, required to prevent R-loop-associated DNA damage and transcription-associated genomic instability: deacetylation by SIRT7 activates the helicase activity, thereby overcoming R-loop-mediated stalling of RNA polymerases (PubMed:28790157). Involved in rRNA processing (PubMed:14559904, PubMed:18180292). May bind to specific miRNA hairpins (PubMed:28431233). Component of a multi-helicase-TICAM1 complex that acts as a cytoplasmic sensor of viral double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) and plays a role in the activation of a cascade of antiviral responses including the induction of pro-inflammatory cytokines via the adapter molecule TICAM1 (By similarity).

DDX21 also known as RH-II/Gu is a member of the DEAD-box RNA helicase family. It weighs approximately 87 kDa and is expressed prominently in the nucleus. DEAD-box proteins are known for unwinding RNA secondary structures essential for various cellular processes. DDX21 plays an important role in ribosome biogenesis and transcriptional regulation. Its nuclear localization is critical for its function and it is detected in various cell types indicating a broad role in cellular mechanisms.
DDX21 is involved in multiple fundamental cellular processes beyond just transcription and ribosomal RNA processing. It participates in the synthesis of rRNA and plays an active role in the regulation of ribosome assembly. Additionally DDX21 interacts with other members of the DEAD-box family forming a complex which is necessary for efficient RNA processing and modification. Its activity has influence over protein synthesis by regulating the availability of ribosomal components.
DDX21 fits into the larger RNA processing and ribosome biogenesis pathways. It interacts with proteins like nucleolin and fibrillarin contributing to the assembly and maturation of ribosomes. In the ribosome biogenesis pathway DDX21 controls the processing of pre-rRNA together with other ribosomal proteins ensuring proper formation of functional ribosomes. DDX21 also participates in the stress response pathways indicating its integral role in adapting to cellular stress conditions.
DDX21's function is implicated in cancer and viral infections. High levels of DDX21 have been associated with tumorigenesis connecting it with oncogenic pathways. It interacts with proteins like p53 in the regulation of cellular growth and apoptosis. Additionally DDX21 plays a part in the replication of certain viruses suggesting a role in the viral life cycle and potential as a therapeutic target. Understanding DDX21’s involvement in these conditions may offer insights into novel diagnostic and treatment strategies.
