The poly (A)-binding protein (PABP), which is found complexed to the 3-prime poly (A) tail of eukaryotic mRNA, is required for poly (A) shortening and translation initiation. In humans, the PABPs comprise a small nuclear isoform and a conserved gene family that displays at least 3 functional proteins: PABP1 (PABPC1), inducible PABP (iPABP, or PABPC4; MIM 603407), and PABP3 (PABPC3; MIM 604680). In addition, there are at least 4 pseudogenes, PABPCP1 to PABPCP4.The poly (A)-binding protein (PABP), which is found complexed to the 3-prime poly (A) tail of eukaryotic mRNA, is required for poly (A) shortening and translation initiation.
