Summary
XRN1 (5’-3’ exoribonuclease 1, HGNC:30654) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 3q23, encoding 5’-3’ exoribonuclease 1 (Q8IZH2). Major 5’-3’ exoribonuclease involved in mRNA decay. It is a selective cancer dependency (DepMap: 63.0% of cell lines).
This gene encodes a member of the 5’-3’ exonuclease family. The encoded protein may be involved in replication-dependent histone mRNA degradation, and interacts directly with the enhancer of mRNA-decapping protein 4. In addition to mRNA metabolism, a similar protein in yeast has been implicated in a variety of nuclear and cytoplasmic functions, including homologous recombination, meiosis, telomere maintenance, and microtubule assembly. Mutations in this gene are associated with osteosarcoma, suggesting that the encoded protein may also play a role in bone formation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 18)
- LSm1-7 proteins colocalize with DCP1,DCP2 and Xrn1 in cytoplasmic foci (PMID:12515382)
- findings reveal a role for XRN1 in decapping and provide a molecular basis for the coupling of decapping to 5’–>3’ mRNA degrada (PMID:23142987)
- Data show that 5’ exonuclease Xrn1 knockdown and miR-122 supplementation have equal, redundant, and nonadditive effects on the rate of viral RNA decay, indicating that miR-122 protects HCV RNA from 5’ decay. (PMID:23248316)
- Authors conclude that Xrn1 is the dominant 5’ exoribonuclease mediating decay of hepatitis C virus RNA and that miR-122 provides protection against it (PMID:25673723)
- Thus, Xrn1 is a cellular factor regulating dsRNA accumulation and dsRNA-responsive innate immune effectors. (PMID:25766294)
- Data show that the AR-miR-204-XRN1-miR-34a positive feedback loop and a dual function of miR-204/XRN1 axis in prostate cancer. (PMID:25797256)
- Occupation of each miR-122 binding site on 5’ untranslated region of the hepatitis C virus genome contributes equally and cooperatively to virus replication via protecting from Xrn1 exoribonuclease degradation. (PMID:25855736)
- Insertion of 5’-3’ exoribonuclease 1 (XRN1)-resistant sequences (xrRNAs) into different reporter mRNAs allowed to monitor RNA decay activity by the nonsense-mediated mRNA decay pathway (NMD). (PMID:27917860)
- These findings suggest that sequestration of the exoribonucleases DIS3L2 and XRN1 to nuclear inclusions may be related to the pathogenesis of intranuclear inclusion body disease (PMID:29100804)
- Authors use a series of assays to demonstrate that the 3’-terminal portion of the nucleocapsid (N) mRNA of Rift Valley fever virus can effectively stall and repress XRN1. The region responsible for impeding XRN1 includes a G-rich portion that likely forms a G-quadruplex structure. The 3’-terminal portions of ambisense-derived transcripts of multiple arenaviruses also stalled XRN1. (PMID:29118186)
- This work provides insight into the role of the RNA decay factor Xrn1/XRN1 as a post-transcriptional regulator of autophagy. (PMID:29465287)
- We show that knockdown of human XRN1, CNOT6 and ETF1 genes in HepG2 cells led to significant alteration in stability of specific mRNAs, alterations in half-life were inversely associated with transcription rates, mostly not resulting in changes in abundance (PMID:31116665)
- Another decapping activator PatL1 directly interacts with CIR and alleviates the CIR-mediated inhibition of CCR4-NOT activity in vitro. Ribosome profiling revealed that XRN1 loss impacts not only on mRNA levels but also on the translational efficiency of many cellular transcripts likely as a consequence of incomplete decay (PMID:31340047)

Function. Major 5’-3’ exoribonuclease involved in mRNA decay. Required for the 5’-3’-processing of the G4 tetraplex-containing DNA and RNA substrates. The kinetic of hydrolysis is faster for G4 RNA tetraplex than for G4 DNA tetraplex and monomeric RNA tetraplex. Plays a role in replication-dependent histone mRNA degradation. May act as a tumor suppressor protein in osteogenic sarcoma (OGS).
Subunit / interactions. Found in a mRNP complex with UPF1, UPF2, UPF3B and XRN1. Associates with alpha and beta tubulins. Interacts with DIS3L2. Interacts with ZC3HAV1 in an RNA-dependent manner. Interacts with ZFP36L1. Interacts with TRIM71 (via NHL repeats) in an RNA-dependent manner. Interacts with YTHDC2 (via ANK repeats). Interacts with DHX34; the interaction is RNA-independent.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in heart, brain, pancreas, spleen, testis, osteogenic sarcoma (OGS) biopsy and primary cell lines.
Induction. By GDNF/glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor.
Miscellaneous. Down-regulated in OGS biopsy.
Similarity. Belongs to the 5’-3’ exonuclease family.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 161 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
