Human La-related protein 1 (HsLARP1) is involved in post-transcriptional regulation of certain 5' terminal oligopyrimidine (5'TOP) mRNAs as well as other mRNAs and binds to both the 5'TOP motif and the 3'-poly(A) tail of certain mRNAs. HsLARP1 is heavily involved in cell proliferation, cell cycle defects, and cancer, where HsLARP1 is significantly upregulated in malignant cells and tissues. Like all LARPs, HsLARP1 contains a folded RNA binding domain, the La motif (LaM). Our current understanding of post-transcriptional regulation that emanates from the intricate molecular framework of HsLARP1 is currently limited to small snapshots, obfuscating our understanding of the full picture on HsLARP1 functionality in post-transcriptional events. Here, we present the nearly complete resonance assignment of the LaM of HsLARP1, providing a significant platform for future NMR spectroscopic studies.
