Function | RNA-binding protein that specifically binds distinct small nuclear RNA (snRNAs) and regulates their processing and function (PubMed:18249148, PubMed:32017898). Specifically binds the 7SK snRNA (7SK RNA) and acts as a core component of the 7SK ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex, thereby acting as a negative regulator of transcription elongation by RNA polymerase II (PubMed:18249148, PubMed:18483487). The 7SK RNP complex sequesters the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) in a large inactive 7SK RNP complex preventing RNA polymerase II phosphorylation and subsequent transcriptional elongation (PubMed:18249148, PubMed:18483487). The 7SK RNP complex also promotes snRNA gene transcription by RNA polymerase II via interaction with the little elongation complex (LEC) (PubMed:28254838). LARP7 specifically binds to the highly conserved 3'-terminal U-rich stretch of 7SK RNA; on stimulation, remains associated with 7SK RNA, whereas P-TEFb is released from the complex (PubMed:18281698, PubMed:18483487). LARP7 also acts as a regulator of mRNA splicing fidelity by promoting U6 snRNA processing (PubMed:32017898). Specifically binds U6 snRNAs and associates with a subset of box C/D RNP complexes: promotes U6 snRNA 2'-O-methylation by facilitating U6 snRNA loading into box C/D RNP complexes (PubMed:32017898). U6 snRNA 2'-O-methylation is required for mRNA splicing fidelity (PubMed:32017898). Binds U6 snRNAs with a 5'- CAGGG-3' sequence motif (PubMed:32017898). U6 snRNA processing is required for spermatogenesis (By similarity). |

Background
LARP7 is a negative transcriptional regulator of polymerase II genes, acting by means of the 7SK RNP system. Within the 7SK RNP complex, the positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb) is sequestered in an inactive form, preventing RNA polymerase II phosphorylation and subsequent transcriptional elongation.
