RNA binding of RRM is needed for the enhancement of SLAP provided by CstF-77. (A) Schematic illustration of point mutants in sites I, II and III of the RRM of MCP-CstF-64. (B) SLAP of the wild- type and I, II and III mutants of the RRM of CstF-64 alone and co-expressed with CstF-77-Myc. Western blots were performed to show expression of MCP-CstF-64 constructs and CstF-77-Myc. β-tubulin was used as a loading control. (C) CLIP experiment verifying that site I, II and III MCP-CstF-64 mutants do not bind or bind minimally to RNA (bottom). Western blot of the immunoprecipitated samples is also shown (top). (D) Immunohistochemistry staining of site I, II and III MCP-CstF-64 mutants. Site I and II localize to the nucleus when expressed alone (green). Site III demonstrates a cytoplasmic localization when expressed alone (green). All MCP-CstF-64 mutants locate to the nucleus when co-expressed with CstF-77-Myc (red).
