Additionally, the C-terminal region plays an important role in regulating RNA translation by directly binding to viral RNAs and cellular mRNAs. Here, we present the three-dimensional structure of the Gemin5 C-terminal region, which adopts a homodecamer architecture comprised of a dimer of pentamers. By structural analysis, mutagenesis, and RNA-binding assays, we find that the intact pentamer/decamer is critical for the Gemin5 C-terminal region to bind cognate RNA ligands and to regulate mRNA translation. The Gemin5 high-order architecture is assembled via pentamerization, allowing binding to RNA ligands in a coordinated manner. We propose a model depicting the regulatory role of Gemin5 in selective RNA binding and translation. Therefore, our work provides insights into the SMN complex-independent function of Gemin5.
