Function
RNA binding protein that binds to the poly-A tract of mRNA molecules (PubMed:21098120). Associates with the 40S ribosomal subunit and with polysomes (PubMed:21098120). Plays a role in the regulation of mRNA translation (PubMed:21098120). Plays a role in the regulation of cell morphology and cytoskeletal organization (PubMed:21834987, PubMed:27615744).
Cellular localization
- Cytoplasm
- Stress granule
- Cytoplasm
- Cytosol
- Localized throughout the cytosol. Partially localized in stress granules in response to arsenite treatment.
