RNA binding proteins (RBPs) are proteins that bind to the RNA in cells and form ribonucleoprotein complexes. It is estimated that approximately 7.5% of all protein-coding genes in the human genome code for RBPs and their aberrant expression has profound effects on cellular physiology and the pathoge...
