Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Enables actin binding activity; protein sequestering activity; and ribosome binding activity. Involved in several processes, including GCN2-mediated signaling; cellular response to amino acid starvation; and regulation of gene expression. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of protein phosphorylation and regulation of translational initiation. Located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including brain; extraembryonic component; genitourinary system; gut; and hemolymphoid system gland. Orthologous to human IMPACT (impact RWD domain protein).
