Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

KHDRBS3 (T-STAR/SLM-2) is a STAR-family RNA-binding protein that functions as a concentration-dependent splicing repressor in the brain and regulates mRNA stability in diverse tissues. It homodimerizes through an unusual interface to achieve high-affinity binding to bipartite U(U/A)AA-repeat RNA motifs, and this dimerization is essential for its splicing-regulatory activity on key neuronal targets including Neurexin1-3 AS4 exons, where the density of UWAA binding sites determines paralog specificity between KHDRBS3 and SAM68 (PMID:26758068, PMID:27994030, PMID:23637638). Loss of KHDRBS3 in mice impairs cortical neural network activity, synapse formation, and causes behavioral deficits including anxiety and impaired novel object recognition (PMID:28009295, PMID:34196888). KHDRBS3 RNA-binding activity is negatively regulated by BRK/Sik tyrosine phosphorylation, and its protein stability is controlled by SIAH1/2 E3 ubiquitin ligase-mediated proteasomal degradation; in cancer contexts, KHDRBS3 regulates CD44 variant splicing to promote stemness and drug resistance, and stabilizes mRNAs encoding YWHAZ, EZH2, and ULK1 (PMID:15471878, PMID:15163637, PMID:33046798, PMID:37848941).

    Identification of KHDRBS3 as a STAR-family RNA-binding protein related to SAM68 established its domain architecture and revealed that, unlike SLM-1, it is not a substrate for Src/Fyn kinases and does not engage canonical SH3-domain signaling partners, positioning it as a functionally distinct paralog.
