Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

CPSF4 (CPSF30) is a multi-zinc-finger RNA-binding protein that serves as a sequence-recognition core of the mammalian pre-mRNA 3'-end cleavage and polyadenylation machinery (PMID:25301780, PMID:32027124). Its zinc fingers 2 and 3 directly contact the AAUAAA polyadenylation signal, an interaction essential for mRNA 3' processing, while AAUAAA recognition requires all five CCCH domains acting in concert (PMID:25301780, PMID:32027124). Beyond signal recognition, CPSF4 carries a 2Fe-2S cluster in addition to five zinc ions, and its CCHC zinc knuckle provides a second RNA-binding mode that binds auxiliary polyU motifs and cooperatively rescues binding to suboptimal AU-rich hexamer variants not recognized by the CCCH cluster alone (PMID:32027124, PMID:33615774). On the polyadenylation side, ZF4 and ZF5 each bind one molecule of hFip1 in a 1:2 stoichiometry — ZF4 with higher affinity — and this CPSF30–hFip1 assembly recruits two copies of poly(A) polymerase, with both binding sites supporting polyadenylation (PMID:33122294). The ZF2-ZF3 module is the target of influenza A NS1, which binds CPSF30 to globally suppress host pre-mRNA 3' processing and innate immune signaling; this binding is a virulence determinant that blocks type I interferon and proinflammatory cytokine induction (PMID:16571812, PMID:25078692, PMID:23255794). Independently of its core processing role, CPSF4 modulates alternative splicing of TP53 and HMG20B transcripts (PMID:30651364, PMID:39731153), and in cancer cells binds promoters of hTERT, VEGF, and NRP2 to activate their transcription and drive proliferative and tumor-initiating programs (PMID:27997899, PMID:36567417).

2014 CPSF30 (CPSF4) directly contacts the AAUAAA polyadenylation signal in mammalian mRNA 3' processing; this interaction is primarily mediated by zinc fingers 2 and 3 (ZF2-ZF3) and is essential for mRNA 3' end processing. In vitro RNA binding assays and in vivo crosslinking/immunoprecipitation (iCLIP); mutagenesis of zinc finger domains Genes & development High 25301780
2006 CPSF30 binding to the influenza A NS1A protein is mediated specifically by zinc fingers 2 and 3 (F2F3) of CPSF30, and this interaction inhibits 3'-end processing of cellular pre-mRNAs including IFN-β. Constitutive nuclear expression of F2F3 inhibits influenza A virus replication by competing with endogenous CPSF30 for NS1A binding.

2008 The influenza A virus polymerase complex (specifically PA protein and NP, but not PB1/PB2) is an integral component of the CPSF30–NS1A complex in infected cells, stabilizing CPSF30 binding to NS1A even when NS1A contains suboptimal hydrophobic residues at positions 103/106. Co-immunoprecipitation in infected cells, reverse genetics with cognate/non-cognate polymerase swaps, mutant NS1A viruses Journal of virology High 19052083
2014 An I106M substitution in H7N9 influenza NS1 restores CPSF30 binding and the ability to block host gene expression, and a recombinant virus expressing NS1-I106M replicates to higher titers in vivo, demonstrating that CPSF30 binding by NS1 is a virulence determinant.

2020 The crystal structure of human CPSF30 ZF4-ZF5 in complex with hFip1 residues 161–200 (1.9 Å resolution) reveals that one hFip1 molecule binds each of ZF4 and ZF5 with a conserved interaction mode (1:2 stoichiometry). ZF4 has higher affinity for hFip1 (Kd = 1.8 nM). The CPSF30–hFip1 complex recruits two copies of poly(A) polymerase (PAP) and both hFip1 binding sites in CPSF30 support polyadenylation.

2020 Full-length CPSF30 contains one 2Fe-2S iron-sulfur cluster in addition to five zinc ions.
