Recombinant Human Tudor domain-containing protein 3 (TDRD3)

Uniprot Id

Q9H7E2

Target Species

Human

Target Name

TDRD3

Target Full Name

Tudor domain-containing protein 3

Target Function

Scaffolding protein that specifically recognizes and binds dimethylarginine-containing proteins. In nucleus, acts as a coactivator: recognizes and binds asymmetric dimethylation on the core histone tails associated with transcriptional activation (H3R17me2a and H4R3me2a) and recruits proteins at these arginine-methylated loci. In cytoplasm, may play a role in the assembly and/or disassembly of mRNA stress granules and in the regulation of translation of target mRNAs by binding Arg/Gly-rich motifs (GAR) in dimethylarginine-containing proteins.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus.

Target Tissue Specificity

Detected in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas.

Target Background

Enables chromatin binding activity; methylated histone binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in chromatin organization and positive regulation of transcription, DNA-templated. Located in Golgi apparatus; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Colocalizes with exon-exon junction complex.
