Function | Translation regulator forming a complex with MCTS1 to promote translation reinitiation. Translation reinitiation is the process where the small ribosomal subunit remains attached to the mRNA following termination of translation of a regulatory upstream ORF (uORF), and resume scanning on the same mRNA molecule to initiate translation of a downstream ORF, usually the main ORF (mORF). The MCTS1/DENR complex is pivotal to two linked mechanisms essential for translation reinitiation. Firstly, the dissociation of deacylated tRNAs from post- termination 40S ribosomal complexes during ribosome recycling. Secondly, the recruitment in an EIF2-independent manner of aminoacylated initiator tRNA to P site of 40S ribosomes for a new round of translation. This regulatory mechanism governs the translation of more than 150 genes which translation reinitiation is MCTS1/DENR complex-dependent. |

Background
DENR (density-regulated protein), also designated DRP or smooth muscle cell associated protein 3 (SMAP-3), is a 198 amino acid protein that may be involved in the translation of target mRNAs by scanning and recognition of the initiation codon (1). It plays a role in the modulation of the translational profile of a subset of cancer-related mRNAs when recruited to the translational initiation complex by the oncogene MCTS1 (2,3). DENR contains a SUI1 domain and is found in a variety of tissues with highest levels present in skeletal and cardiac muscle. It is up-regulated in ovarian and breast cancer cells by ERBB2 overexpression (4).
