NCBI Gene Info:Enables mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity. Involved in several processes, including germ-line stem-cell niche homeostasis; negative regulation of RNA metabolic process; and positive regulation of signal transduction. Located in cytoplasmic stress granule and cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including circulatory system; cuboidal/columnar epithelium; embryonic/larval muscle system; extended germ band embryo; and testis. Orthologous to several human genes including LIN28A (lin-28 homolog A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022] |
