hnRNP K Proteins and Enzymes

The hnRNP-K family of acidic nuclear proteins has been identified using a monoclonal antibody that distinguishes between quiescent and proliferating human keratinocytes. The family, which is composed of four major proteins (hnRNPs-K A, B, C and D) and their modified forms, is present in similar overall levels in quiescent and proliferating normal keratinocytes although clear differences were observed in the levels of some of the individual variants (1). hnRNP-K is an ancient RNA/DNA-binding ...
