Background:

STRAP, another antagonist to the TGFβ signalling pathway, specifically interacts with Smad7, but not Smad6, to synergistically block TGF∫-induced transcriptional activation. The gene encoding the human homolog of STRAP (as designated in mouse), called unr-interacting protein, maps to chromosome 12p12.3. Unr-interacting protein is 97% homologous to STRAP at the amino acid level. The unr-interacting protein binds unr, a cytoplasmic RNA-binding protein with five cold-shock domains that is involved in RNA translation. The presence of the STRAP gene in a variety of species from mammals to yeast, indicates that STRAP function is evolutionarily conserved in eukaryotic cells.
