Arginine and glutamate-rich protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ARGLU1 gene located at 13q33.3.[5]

The protein product of this gene has been proposed as a MED1-interacting protein required for estrogen-dependent gene transcription and breast cancer cell growth.[6]

The ARGLU1 gene expresses at least three distinct RNA splice isoforms - a fully spliced isoform coding for the protein, an isoform containing a retained intron that is detained in the nucleus, and an isoform containing an alternative exon that targets the transcript for nonsense mediated decay. Furthermore, ARGLU1 contains a long, highly evolutionarily conserved sequence known as an Ultraconserved Element (UCE) that is within the retained intron and overlaps the alternative exon. [7]

Function

[edit]

ARGLU1 has been characterized as a regulator of both transcription and alternative splicing, and as important for embryonic development.[8] In mouse loss-of-function models, deletion of Arglu1 caused widespread alternative-splicing defects and cortical developmental abnormalities associated with apoptosis.[9]
