PRR29 (proline-rich protein 29) is a protein encoded by the PRR29 gene located in humans on chromosome 17 at 17q23.{{Cite web|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/protein/p0C7W0|title=RecName: Full=Proline-rich protein 29 - Protein - NCBI|website=www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/92340|title=PRR29 proline rich 29 [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene - NCBI|website=www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov|access-date=2016-04-28}}{{cite web|url=https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P0C7W0|title=PRR29_HUMAN|website=Uniprot|accessdate=28 April 2016}}

Its function is not fully understood. Its name is derived from the chain of 5 proline amino acids located toward the end of the protein. The primary domain within the sequence of this protein is known as DUF4587. It is reported to have high levels of expression in tissues pertaining to the circulatory system and the immune system.{{Cite web|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene?Db=gene&Cmd=DetailsSearch&Term=92340|title=PRR29 proline rich 29 [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene - NCBI|website=www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov}} It is hypothesized that PRR29 is a nuclear protein that facilitates communication between the nucleus and the mitochondria.

The gene is also commonly known as C17orf72. The gene has a size of 5961 base pairs and contains five exons.

Protein

= General properties =

Homo sapiens PRR29 has several protein isoforms, with the longest being 236 amino acids. PRR29 has a predicted Isoelectric point of 5.23 and a predicted Molecular weight of 26.1 kilodaltons. PRR29 is characterized by a larger than average proportion of prolines (19.1%) and a smaller than average amount of asparagines (0.4%){{Cite web|url=http://web.expasy.org/compute_pi/|title=Compute pI/Mw|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics|access-date=}}

The PRR29 protein is estimated to have a molecular weight of 20.7 kDa. Its isoelectric point is predicted to lie at 4.83.https://web.expasy.org/cgi-bin/compute_pi/pi_tool{{Dead link|date=October 2022 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

= Domains =

PRR29 contains a proline rich region within its sequence from amino acids 73 to 166. A domain of unknown function, DUF 4587, is also present from amino acids 39 to 112 or 113.{{Cite web|url=https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P0C7W0|title=PRR29 - Proline-rich protein 29 - Homo sapiens (Human) - PRR29 gene & protein|website=www.uniprot.org|access-date=2016-05-09}}{{Cite web|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/?term=P0C7W0|title=PRR29 proline rich 29 [Homo sapiens (human)] - Gene - NCBI|website=www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov}} DUF 4587 is usually between 64 and 79 amino acids long and contains the two sequence motifs QNAQ and HHH. PRR29 is predicted to contain multiple alpha helix and beta-sheet forming regions. Specifically, the DUF 4587 region is predicted to form an alpha helix.{{Cite web|url=http://workbench.sdsc.edu/|title=SDSC Biology Workbench-PELE|last=|first=|date=|website=|publisher=|access-date=}}

It contains one proline-rich region motif that extends from amino acid 39 to 107.{{Cite web|url=https://myhits.sib.swiss/cgi-bin/motif_scan|title=Motif Scan|website=myhits.sib.swiss}}

= Secondary and Tertiary Structure =

File:PRR29 Structure.jpg

The secondary structure is characterized by high confidence in the presence of an alpha helix from amino acid 43 to 70 with the rest consisting of coils.{{Cite web|url=https://zhanggroup.org/I-TASSER/|title=I-TASSER server for protein structure and function prediction|website=zhanggroup.org}} In terms of tertiary structure, predictive tools returned low confidence in all sections of the protein besides the core alpha helix.{{Cite web|url=https://alphafold.ebi.ac.uk/entry/P0C7W0|title=AlphaFold Protein Structure Database|website=alphafold.ebi.ac.uk}}

= Untranslated Regions =

The secondary structure of the 5' UTR of PRR29 consists of a singular stem-loop that is almost wholly conserved between orthologs. The 3' UTR is much longer, containing 41 different stem loops in its secondary structure. Any predicted miRNA binding to PRR29 is believed to be nonfunctional.{{Cite web|url=http://www.unafold.org/mfold/applications/rna-folding-form.php|title=RNA Folding Form|website=www.unafold.org}}

= Subcellular localization =

Using PSORTII, PRR29 is predicted to localize in the nucleus of the cell.{{Cite web|url=http://psort.hgc.jp/form2.html|title=PSORT II Prediction|website=psort.hgc.jp|access-date=2016-05-09}} PSORTII does not predict any targeting sequences or signal peptides. Data on localization of PRR29 within cells shows that it is primarily found in the nucleus, followed by the mitochondria and cytoplasm.https://psort.hgc.jp/cgi-bin/runpsort.pl{{Dead link|date=October 2022 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}

= Post-Translational Modification =

PRR29 is predicted to undergo sumoylation, acetylation, and serine, threonine and tyrosine phosphorylation.{{Cite web|url=http://www.cbs.dtu.dk/services/|title=CBS Prediction Servers|website=www.cbs.dtu.dk|access-date=2016-05-09}} The most common types of post-translational modification that occur for this protein are phosphorylation, glycosylation, hydroxylation, and sumoylation.{{Cite web|url=https://www.musite.net/|title=MusiteDeep|website=www.musite.net}} They contribute to the stability, structure, and folding of the protein.

= Interactions =

The interactome of PRR29 is not yet well characterized. One experimental study found that a Sus scrofa PRR29-like protein interacts with the N-terminal protease of classical swine fever virus (CSFV).{{cite journal|date=February 2013|title=Poly(C)-binding protein 1, a novel N(pro)-interacting protein involved in classical swine fever virus growth|journal=Journal of Virology|volume=87|issue=4|pages=2072–80|doi=10.1128/JVI.02807-12|pmc=3571455|pmid=23221550|vauthors=Li D, Li S, Sun Y, Dong H, Li Y, Zhao B, Guo D, Weng C, Qiu HJ}} File:ITasser PRR29 Structure Prediction.gif

Expression

File:PRR29 Expression 1.jpg

File:PRR29 Expression 2.png

PRR29 is ubiquitously expressed throughout the body. However, there is particularly high expression in the ovaries, muscle, heart, testes, and thymus.{{Cite web|url=https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geoprofiles/|title=Home - GEO Profiles - NCBI|website=www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov|access-date=2016-05-09}} According to PaxDb, PRR29 abundance falls in the bottom 5% relative to other proteins.{{Cite web|url=http://pax-db.org/dataset/9606/29|title=H.sapiens - Whole organism (Integrated) in PaxDb|website=pax-db.org|access-date=2016-05-09}}

Its expression is concentrated in related tissues including the spleen, lungs, white blood cells, and heart. In situ hybridization data reveals that expression in the human brain is brain is relatively low in the forebrain but higher in the basal ganglia, midbrain, and hindbrain with the exception of the cerebellar cortex. For comparison, expression in the mouse brain is focused in the isocortex, olfactory region, hippocampus, cortical subplate, and cerebellum.
