YB-3 substitutes YB-1 in global mRNA binding.

ABSTRACT: Y-box binding proteins are DNA- and RNA-binding proteins with an evolutionarily ancient and conserved cold shock domain. The Y-box binding protein 1 (YB-1) is the most studied due to its abundance in somatic cells. YB-1 is involved in a variety of cellular processes, including proliferation, differentiation and stress response. Here, using Ribo-Seq and RIP-Seq we confirm that YB-1 binds a wide range of mRNAs and globally acts as a translation inhibitor. Surprisingly, YBX1 knockout results in only minor alterations in the expression of other genes, mostly caused by changes in RNA abundance. But YB-3 mRNA is an exception: it is better translated in the absence of YB-1, thereby producing an increased amount of YB-3 and thus suggesting that its synthesis is under YB-1 negative co
