Abstract excerpt
PUF proteins are a conserved group of sequence-specific RNA-binding proteins that typically function to negatively regulate mRNA stability and translation. PUFs are well characterized at the molecular, structural and functional levels in Drosophila, Caenorhabditis elegans, budding yeast and human systems. Although usually encoded by small gene families, PUFs are over-represented in the plant genome, with up to 36...
