Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

RBM10 is a nuclear RNA-binding protein that functions as a master splicing regulator promoting exon skipping across hundreds of pre-mRNAs, with additional splicing-independent roles in 3'-end RNA processing, DNA replication fork stability, and chromatin organization. Its RRM1-ZnF-RRM2 domains cooperatively bind exonic GGA-centered motifs and intronic C-rich sequences with nanomolar affinity to direct exon skipping of targets including NUMB, Bcl-x, Fas, TERT, and cytoskeletal/ECM transcripts (VCL, TNC, CD44), and it functions as a constitutive U2 snRNP component at intronic branch sites where its conserved zinc finger peptide is required for spliceosomal integration and exon repression (PMID:28379442, PMID:38537639, PMID:39992626). Beyond splicing, RBM10 associates with the poly(A) polymerase Star-PAP via RRM2 to direct 3'-end processing of anti-hypertrophy cardiac mRNAs under control of cSrc-mediated tyrosine phosphorylation, and interacts with active replication forks via PRIM1 to recruit HDAC1 for H4K16 deacetylation and R-loop resolution (PMID:30257214, PMID:38309577, PMID:39080280). RBM10 loss generates aberrant exon-inclusion isoforms that activate RAC1 and drive metastasis, while dengue NS5 and HIV-1 Vpu exploit proteasome-mediated RBM10 degradation to overcome its antiviral splicing and innate immune functions including RIG-I ubiquitination (PMID:39992626, PMID:32432721, PMID:40742131).

2021 RBM10 regulates splicing of the human TERT gene, promoting exclusion of exons 7 and 8 to produce a non-functional hTERT-s isoform; RBM10 binding to TERT pre-mRNA was confirmed by RNA-IP and RNA pull-down assays, and RBM10 overexpression suppresses telomerase activity in pancreatic cancer. RNA-IP, RNA pull-down, minigene splicing assay, telomerase activity assay, xenograft models American journal of cancer research Medium 33520366
2025 RBM10 directly binds intronic flanking regions of circHIPK3 and circSMARCA5 (PAR-CLIP and RNA pulldown); RBM10 binding to the 3' flanking region promotes exon skipping and circularization more efficiently than 5' binding, and interacts with SF3B1 as an upstream event governing circRNA biogenesis. Loss of RBM10 reduces these circRNAs and promotes tumorigenesis. PAR-CLIP, RNA pulldown, splicing reporter assay, Co-IP (RBM10-SF3B1), RNA-seq, functional cancer assays Biomarker research Medium 41673707
