FUNCTION : Binds the poly(A) tail of mRNA. May be involved in cytoplasmic regulatory processes of mRNA metabolism. Can probably bind to cytoplasmic RNA sequences other than poly(A) in vivo. SUBCELLULAR LOCATION : CYTOPLASMIC. SHUTTLES BETWEEN THE CYTOPLASM AND THE NUCLEUS. TISSUE SPECIFICITY : Ubiquitous. SIMILARITY : Contains 4 RNA recognition motif (RRM) domains. |
