Supplementary information

The biological target MEX3C also known as RKHD3 or MEX-3 homolog C is a protein that functions mechanically as an RNA-binding protein. It has a mass of approximately 73 kilodaltons. MEX3C is expressed in various tissues including the brain skeletal muscle and kidney. It contains KH domains responsible for binding RNA enabling it to regulate the fate of specific mRNA molecules influencing mRNA stability and translation.
Biological function summary

MEX3C acts as a post-transcriptional regulator and is involved in mRNA decay and modulation. It does not appear to be a part of any large protein complexes but regulates the expression of a variety of cellular factors by binding target mRNAs. This control mechanism allows MEX3C to influence cell differentiation and development by affecting protein synthesis at the post-transcriptional level.

Pathways

MEX3C is implicated in the regulation of the Wnt signaling pathway and the mRNA surveillance pathway. It interacts with proteins involved in these pathways to modulate transcriptional outputs and cell signaling processes which are vital for normal embryonic development and cellular homeostasis. Proteins such as β-catenin and UPF1 may interact with MEX3C as part of these pathways aligning MEX3C actions with control of cell proliferation and gene expression.

MEX3C has connections to cancer particularly in pathways that influence tumor growth and progression. Additionally MEX3C may play a role in neurodegenerative diseases as it is involved in mRNA regulation within neurons. Disorders linked with MEX3C involve proteins like p53 which is associated with the regulation of cell cycle and apoptosis illustrating the potential impact of MEX3C on cellular outcomes that pertain to these diseases.

Target data

E3 ubiquitin ligase responsible for the post-transcriptional regulation of common HLA-A allotypes. Binds to the 3' UTR of HLA-A2 mRNA, and regulates its levels by promoting mRNA decay. RNA binding is sufficient to prevent translation, but ubiquitin ligase activity is required for mRNA degradation.
