Background: Nova-1 and Nova-2 are members of a superfamily of protein regulators of RNA metabolism in neurons. Both are nuclear RNA binding proteins with K homology motifs, conserved protein sequences which bind to RNA (1,2) . Nova proteins, normally sequestered in the central nervous system, are expressed by systemic tumors in patients with the autoimmune disorder paraneoplastic opsoclonus-myoclonus ataxia (POMA) (3,4) . Nova-1 is expressed in the hindbrain and ventral spinal cord and Nova-2 is expressed in the neocortex and hippocampus (4) . Nova-1 is necessary for regulating neuron-specific alternative splicing of the glycine receptor Alpha2 pre-mRNA (5) .
