ALYREF
ALYREF, also known as THY1 RNA-binding protein, is a protein that plays a role in the process of gene expression, specifically in the transportation and regulation of RNA molecules within cells. It helps in binding to RNA and assists in its movement from the nucleus (where genetic information is stored) to the cytoplasm (where proteins are made). This function is essential for proper gene regulation and cellular activity. Research suggests ALYREF may also be involved in processes like cell growth and can be linked to certain diseases when its function is disrupted.
