Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 5.4.0)
Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in miRNA-mediated gene silencing; positive regulation of nuclear-transcribed mRNA catabolic process, deadenylation-dependent decay; and positive regulation of nuclear-transcribed mRNA poly(A) tail shortening. Predicted to act upstream of or within miRNA-mediated gene silencing by inhibition of translation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in P-body and nucleoplasm. Is expressed in lung. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in subserous uterine fibroid and uterine fibroid. Orthologous to human TNRC6B (trinucleotide repeat containing adaptor 6B).
