The poly (A)-binding protein (PABP), which is found complexed to the 3-prime poly (A) tail of eukaryotic mRNA, is required for poly (A) shortening and translation initiation. Polyadenylate-binding protein 1 (PABPC1) is a cytoplasmic-nuclear shuttling protein important for protein translation initiation, and both RNA processing and stability. In the cytoplasm, PABPC1 binds to the 3' poly (A) tail of eukaryotic mRNAs through its RNA-recognition motifs (RRM) and interacts with the N-terminus of eIF4G, part of the eIF4F complex associated with the 5' cap structure.
