Gene Information

human ... NOVA1(4857)

General description

This gene encodes a neuron-specific RNA-binding protein, a member of the Nova family of paraneoplastic disease antigens, that is recognized and inhibited by paraneoplastic antibodies. These antibodies are found in the sera of patients with paraneoplastic opsoclonus-ataxia, breast cancer, and small cell lung cancer. Alternatively spliced transcripts encoding distinct isoforms have been described. (provided by RefSeq)

Immunogen

NOVA1 (NP_002506, 408 a.a. ~ 507 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Application

Monoclonal Anti-NOVA1, (C-terminal) antibody produced in mouse is suitable for indirect ELISA and western blot analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

NOVA1 is associated with several post-transcriptional regulation of RNA metabolism including RNA splicing, editing to transport, localization, and degradation. It may be involved in mediating neuronal responsiveness. It encodes a protein which has homology with the RNA-binding protein hnRNP K, the yeast splicing protein MER1. Since, it has some homology with hnRNP K, it may influence the regulation of RNA splicing or metabolism in developing neurons. The importance of NOVA1 as prognostic marker has been reported in HCC (Hepatocellular carcinoma). Alteration in gene causes a disorder associated with breast cancer and motor dysfunction i.e. paraneoplastic opsoclonus myoclonus ataxia (POMA).

Neuro-oncological ventral antigen 1 (Nova1) is a neuron-specific RNA-binding protein in human paraneoplastic opsoclonus-myoclonus ataxia accompanying with malignant tumors, but its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains elusive. In this study, we found that overexpressed intratumoral Nova1 was associated with

Paraneoplastic opsoclonus-ataxia, a disorder of motor control, develops in breast or lung cancer patients who harbor an antibody (Ri) that recognizes their tumors and a nuclear neuronal protein of 55 kd. We have characterized a gene, Nova, encoding an antigen

Nova-1, an autoantigen in paraneoplastic opsoclonus myoclonus ataxia (POMA), a disorder associated with breast cancer and motor dysfunction, is a neuron-specific nuclear RNA binding protein. We have identified in vivo Nova-1 RNA ligands by combining affinity-elution-based RNA selection with protein-RNA
