Background:  Pumilio 1, also known as PUM1, PUMH1 (Pumilio homolog 1), HSPUM, PUMH or PUML1, is a homolog of the Drosophila Pumilio protein and belongs to the PUF family. The PUF family is comprised of evolutionarily conserved proteins that contain a C-terminal RNA binding domain made up of eight highly conserved tandem repeats. PUF proteins function as sequence-specific RNA-binding proteins and bind NREs (nanos response elements) in the 3’-untranslated regions of target mRNAs. They play an important role mediating mRNA stabilization and repressing translation. Pumilio 1 is a typical PUF protein expressed in fetal tissues as well as adult stomach, kidney, intestine, muscle, brain and heart tissues. Pumilio 1 localizes to the cytoplasm and is believed to participate in cell fate, cell development, cell differentiation and maintenance of somatic stem cells.
