A CAF40-binding motif facilitates recruitment of the CCR4-NOT complex to mRNAs targeted by Drosophila Roquin
Abstract
Roquin proteins downregulate target mRNA expression by recruiting effectors such as the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex. Here the authors provide molecular details of how Roquin proteins recruit the CCR4-NOT complex to repress the expression of its targets.
