Summary
Predicted to enable RNA binding activity and endoribonuclease activity, cleaving miRNA-paired mRNA. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including RNA secondary structure unwinding; positive regulation of non-canonical NF-kappaB signal transduction; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in condensed nuclear chromosome; cytosol; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be part of RISC complex and RISC-loading complex. Predicted to be active in cytoplasmic ribonucleoprotein granule and nucleus. Orthologous to human AGO3 (argonaute RISC catalytic component 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
