Annotated Information
Name
BC200
Characteristics
200 nucleotide ncRNA (Tiedge (1993)) exapted from an Alu element (Watson (1987)). Transcribed by RNA polymerase III (Martignetti (1993)). Three structural domains, 5' that shares homology with Alu elements, a central A rich region and a 3' unique region (Tiedge (1993)).
Transcriptomic Nomeclature
Please input transcriptomic nomeclature information here.
Function
Binds several proteins including the signal recognition particle SRP9/14 heterodimer (Kremerskothen (1998)), eukaryotic initiation factor 4A helicase (eIF4A) (Lin (2008)) and Poly(A)-binding protein (PABP), binding to PABP requires the central A rich region (Muddashetty (2002)).
Inhibits translation in-vitro and in cultured cells similar to BC1. BC200 binding to eIF4A inhibits it by uncoupling eIF4A ATPase activity from its helicase/ duplex unwinding activity (Lin (2008)). Translational inhibition also involves BC200 binding to to PABP (Kondrashov (2005)).
Regulation
Please input regulation information here.
Expression
Expressed predominantly in different regions of the brain. Also shows low level expression in testis but not in other normal tissues examined (Watson (1987), Tiedge (1993), Kuryshev (2001)). RNA sequencing of 11 human tissues confirmed up-regulation of expression in brain (hypothalamus) and low or no expression elsewhere (Castle (2010)).
Disregulated in cancer: expressed in a number of human tumours but not in corresponding normal tissue (Chen (1998)).
Link with aging and Alzheimer disease: BC200 expression decreases with aging but is upregulated in Alzheimer's disease (AD). In AD affected brain regions, expression increased with disease severity. RNA localisation showed intense perikaryal staining, showing build up of RNA in cell body (Mus (2007)).
Like BC1 ncRNA found in rodents, BC200 also suggested to localise to dendrites (Tiedge (1993)).
