Summary: Enables RNA binding activity and translation initiation factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including RNA metabolic process; cellular response to glucose stimulus; and positive regulation of intracellular signal transduction. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including miRNA metabolic process; negative regulation of glial cell differentiation; and regulation of gene expression. Located in nucleolus and rough endoplasmic reticulum. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; embryo ectoderm; limb primordium; reproductive system; and tooth. Used to study nephroblastoma. Orthologous to human LIN28A (lin-28 homolog A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 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.
