Target Information

PNPT1 (polyribonucleotide nucleotidyltransferase 1, mitochondrial) is an RNA-binding protein involved in multiple RNA metabolic processes. It catalyzes the phosphorolysis of single-stranded polyribonucleotides processively in the 3′-to-5′ direction. PNPT1 is a component of the mitochondrial degradosome (mtEXO) complex that degrades double-stranded RNA with 3′ overhangs in an ATP-dependent manner. It is required for proper processing and polyadenylation of mitochondrial mRNAs.
PNPT1 also functions as a cytoplasmic RNA import factor, plays roles in mitochondrial morphogenesis, respiration, and regulation of electron transport chain expression. It contributes to the stability of specific mature miRNAs in melanoma cells and RNA surveillance.
Mutations in this gene are associated with combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 13 (COXPD13) and autosomal recessive deafness 70 (DFNB70).
