Function | Multifunctional protein that participates in many aspects of cellular RNA metabolism. Plays pivotal roles in innate immune sensing and hematopoietic homeostasis (PubMed:34473945). Recognizes foreign or self-nucleic acids generated during microbial infection, thereby initiating anti-pathogen responses (PubMed:23222971). Mechanistically, phosphorylation by BTK allows binding to dsDNA leading to interaction with STING1 (PubMed:25704810). Modulates the homeostasis of dsDNA through its ATP-dependent DNA-unwinding activity and ATP-independent strand-annealing activity (PubMed:35613581). In turn, induces STING1- mediated type I interferon and cytokine responses to DNA and DNA viruses (PubMed:35613581). Selectively modulates the transcription of certain immunity-associated genes by regulating their alternative splicing (PubMed:33650667). Binds to RNA (R)-loops, structures consisting of DNA/RNA hybrids and a displaced strand of DNA that occur during transcription, and prevents their accumulation, thereby maintaining genome stability (PubMed:36229594). Also participates in pre-mRNA splicing, translational regulation and snoRNA processing, which is essential for ribosome biogenesis (PubMed:36229594, PubMed:36780110). |
Cellular Location | Nucleus. Cytoplasm Note=Predominantly present in the nucleus and traffics to the cytoplasm, specifically in the perinuclear region, after DNA stimulation. |

Background
DEAD box proteins, characterized by the conserved motif Asp-Glu-Ala-Asp (DEAD), are putative RNA helicases. They are implicated in a number of cellular processes involving alteration of RNA secondary structure, such as translation initiation, nuclear and mitochondrial splicing, and ribosome and spliceosome assembly. Based on their distribution patterns, some members of the DEAD box protein family are believed to be involved in embryogenesis, spermatogenesis, and cellular growth and division. This gene encodes a member of this family. The function of this member has not been determined. Based on studies in Drosophila, the abstrakt gene is widely required during post-transcriptional gene expression.
