Target data

Function

Possesses 5'->3' exoribonuclease activity (By similarity). May promote the termination of transcription by RNA polymerase II. During transcription termination, cleavage at the polyadenylation site liberates a 5' fragment which is subsequently processed to form the mature mRNA and a 3' fragment which remains attached to the elongating polymerase. The processive degradation of this 3' fragment by this protein may promote termination of transcription. Binds to RNA polymerase II (RNAp II) transcription termination R-loops formed by G-rich pause sites (PubMed:21700224).

Supplementary info

Activity summary

XRN2 also known as 5'-3' exoribonuclease 2 is an enzyme involved in RNA metabolism. It has a molecular mass of approximately 105 kDa. XRN2 scavenges for the degradation of uncapped nascent RNA by cleaving RNA in the 5' to 3' direction after exonucleolytic cleavage. Predominantly expressed in the nucleus XRN2 plays an important role in RNA turnover and processing contributing to the precise control of gene expression within eukaryotic cells.

Biological function summary

5'-3' exoribonuclease 2 regulates the termination of transcription facilitating the completion of the RNA synthesis process. XRN2 functions in coordination with other components within transcription termination complexes such as the exosome. These complexes ensure the removal of excess or faulty RNA which is critical for maintaining cellular homeostasis. XRN2's activity aids in silencing transcriptional noise and preventing the accumulation of defective RNA species.

Pathways

5'-3' RNA decay and termination are where XRN2 finds its primary function. It is a part of the exosome-mediated RNA decay pathway and contributes to effective gene expression pathways. In these pathways XRN2 functions alongside proteins such as Rrp6 and other cofactors ensuring the fidelity of RNA processing is maintained. It interacts with proteins involved in RNA polymerase II-mediated transcriptional processes highlighting its integral role in gene expression regulation.

Associated diseases and disorders

Improper function or expression of XRN2 is linked to cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. In cancer alterations in RNA processing pathways involving XRN2 can lead to unchecked cellular proliferation. Additionally proteins like SEPT7 are sometimes altered in these pathways contributing to oncogenic potentials. In neurodegenerative disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) disrupted XRN2 function can result in abnormal RNA processing and neuronal damage. Here interactions with proteins like TDP-43 can exacerbate disease pathology linking XRN2 to complex disease mechanisms.
