Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function May regulate the transport and translation of mRNAs, modulating for instance the expression of proteins involved in synaptic plasticity in neurons. Involved in regulation of growth as erythroblasts shift from a highly proliferative state towards their terminal phase of differentiation. May be involved in apoptosis. {ECO:0000269PubMed:20516077}.
Subcellular Localization Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250UniProtKB:Q6IMN6}.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Specifically expressed in brain (at protein level). {ECO:0000269PubMed:20516077}.
