RNA recognition motif

The RNA Recognition Motif (RRM) is a common structural domain found in proteins that specifically bind to RNA molecules. It typically consists of about 90 amino acids folded into a shape that can identify and attach to particular RNA sequences. This interaction allows proteins to influence RNA's function, such as helping in processing, transport, stability, or translation of genetic information. The RRM is essential for many cellular processes, ensuring that RNA molecules are correctly managed and perform their roles efficiently within the cell.
