PF05670: NFACT protein RNA binding domain
IPR008532: integrated entry for NFACT protein RNA binding domain

Source description

This domain occurs in proteins that have been annotated as Fibronectin/fibrinogen binding protein by similarity. This annotation comes from O34693 (UniProtKB protein) where the N-terminal region is involved in this activity [InterPro reference PUB00011315]. It is an RNA binding domain of the NFACT (NEMF, FbpA, Caliban, and Tae2) proteins. This NFACT-R family is found in two eukaryotic gene contexts: fused to the NFACT-N and NFACT-C domains in the NFACT protein involved in the ribosomal quality control pathway which contributes to CAT-tailing and as a standalone domain [InterPro reference PUB00091027]. Additionally this domain contains a conserved motif D/E-X-W/Y-X-H that may be functionally important.

Status and evidence

Seed status
A name-based classification of frozen InterPro/Pfam metadata. UNKNOWN CANDIDATE means the metadata explicitly says the function is unknown. KNOWN HISTORICAL DUF means a DUF name matched without that wording; this heuristic is not proof of a known function and does not establish experimental characterization. EX DUF means Pfam renamed the family away from a DUF/UPF name, as recorded in Pfam's previous identifiers; a rename usually follows published work on some members but is naming history, not proof of function for every member. Some EX DUF families' current names or descriptions still say the function is unknown; their classification basis lists this, and scoring does not treat them as characterized. FALSE POSITIVE TEXT HIT means the naming rules did not match.
Characterization
A separate evidence-scoring result. UNSCORED means no score has been calculated; it is not evidence that the family lacks a known function. Missing scores are not negative evidence. PARTIALLY CHARACTERIZED has partial support; KNOWN HISTORICAL DUF can inherit the seed label or reflect a known-function signal. Neither label implies experimental validation.
Evidence counts
Source-specific signals, not unique proteins, publications, or confidence scores. Known counts Rhea reactions and experimentally supported GO molecular-function annotations. Partial counts functional/domain assignments. Context counts structural, environmental, orthology, interaction and neighborhood signals; context alone does not assign function. Repeated annotations may not be independent.
Curation status
Reported separately from seed classification and characterization. SNAPSHOT ONLY means no curated metadata was supplied for this build. SEEDED denotes a source-derived record, not an expert-reviewed functional claim.
Missing counts
Not available means the source did not supply that counter. A zero is a reported count. Not scored means evidence counts are unavailable.
