Structural studies of Human Caprin Protein

Human Caprin-1 and Caprin-2 are prototypic members of the caprin (cytoplasmic activation/proliferation-associated protein) protein family. Vertebrate caprin proteins contain two highly conserved homologous regions (HR1 and HR2) and C-terminal RGG motifs. Drosophila caprin (dCaprin) shares HR1 and RGG motifs but lacks HR2. Caprin-1 and Caprin-2 have important and non-redundant functions. The detailed molecular mechanisms of their actions remain largely unknown.
