Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity and transcription coactivator activity. Involved in several processes, including myofibroblast contraction; regulation of glial cell differentiation; and regulation of mRNA metabolic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including long-chain fatty acid biosynthetic process; spermatid development; and vasculature development. Is active in cytoplasm; nucleus; and synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including central nervous system; craniocervical region bone; reproductive system; sensory organ; and yolk sac. Orthologous to human QKI (QKI, KH domain containing RNA binding).
