Overview of Gene Research
Matr3, also known as Matrin-3, is a nuclear matrix protein. It is involved in multiple crucial biological processes, regulating gene expression at various levels such as chromatin organization, DNA transcription, RNA metabolism, and protein translation [3]. It also participates in cellular processes like DNA damage response, cell proliferation, differentiation, and survival [3].

In liver cancer, Matr3 promotes cancer progression. It upregulates its expression, correlating with poor prognosis. Matr3 binds to DHX58 mRNA, recruits YTHDF2, degrades DHX58 mRNA, and suppresses the type I IFN signaling pathway. Knocking out Matr3 in liver cancer cells triggers a natural immune response, stimulating CD8+ T cells to eliminate cancer cells [1].

In the context of chromatin organization, Matr3 and antisense LINE1 (AS L1) RNAs form a meshwork via phase separation, which scaffolds higher-order chromatin organization. Depletion of Matr3 leads to chromatin redistribution and altered intra-TAD interactions [2].

Regarding neurodegenerative diseases, many missense mutations in Matr3 have been linked to familial forms of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and distal myopathy. However, MATR3 P154S knock-in mice did not develop progressive motor deficits or ALS-like pathology, suggesting this variant is not sufficient to produce ALS-like pathology in vivo [4].

In summary, Matr3 is essential for regulating gene expression and various cellular functions. Studies using gene knockout and knock-in mouse models have provided insights into its role in liver cancer progression and its potential link to neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS. These model-based studies contribute to a better understanding of the biological functions of Matr3 and its implications in disease mechanisms [1,2,4].
