MBNL2 is a C3H-type zinc finger protein, which is similar to the Drosophila melanogaster muscleblind B protein.MBNL2 is a RNA-binding protein that binds to 5'ACACCC-3' core sequence. It binds to CUG triplet repeat expansion in myotonic dystrophy muscle cells by sequestering the target RNAs. MBNL2 seems to regulate expression and localization of ITGA3 by transporting it from the nucleus to cytoplasm. It may play a role in myotonic dystrophy pathophysiology (DM).
