Nucleolin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the NCL gene. ^{[5] [6]}

Gene

The human NCL gene is located on chromosome 2 and consists of 14 exons with 13 introns and spans approximately 11kb. Intron 11 of the NCL gene encodes a small nucleolar RNA, termed U20. ^[7]

Function

Nucleolin is the major nucleolar protein of growing eukaryotic cells. It is found associated with intranucleolar chromatin and pre-ribosomal particles. It induces chromatin decondensation by binding to histone H1.^{[ citation needed ]} It is thought to play a role in pre-rRNA transcription and ribosome assembly. It may play a role in the process of transcriptional elongation.^{[ citation needed ]} It binds RNA oligonucleotides with 5'-UUAGGG-3' repeats more tightly than the telomeric single-stranded DNA 5'-TTAGGG-3' repeats.^{[ citation needed ]}

Nucleolin is also able to act as a transcriptional coactivator with Chicken Ovalbumin Upstream Promoter Transcription Factor II (COUP-TFII). ^[8]

Clinical significance

Midkine and pleiotrophin bind to cell-surface nucleolin as a low affinity receptor. This binding can inhibit HIV infection. ^{[9] [10]}

Nucleolin at the cell surface is the receptor for the respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion protein. ^[11] Interference with the nucleolin–RSV fusion protein interaction has been shown to be therapeutic against RSV infection in cell cultures and animal models. ^{[12] [13] [14] [15]}

Interactions

Nucleolin has been shown to interact with:

• MTDH, ^[16]
• CSNK2A2, ^[17]
• Centaurin, alpha 1, ^[18]
• HuR, ^[19]
• NPM1, ^[20]
• P53, ^[21]
• PPP1CB, ^[22]
• S100A11, ^[23]
• Sjögren syndrome antigen B, ^[24]
• TOP1, ^{[25] [26]} and
• Telomerase reverse transcriptase. ^[27]
