    Summary
    Enables mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity and translation repressor activity. Involved in several processes, including ganglion mother cell fate determination; negative regulation of neuroblast proliferation; and nervous system development. Located in several cellular components, including apical cortex; basal cortex; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including CNS glial cell; anlage in statu nascendi; germline cell; head epidermis primordium; and ventral nerve cord. Used to study brain cancer; cancer; and neurodegenerative disease. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]
