== Function Summary ==
* **Entrez Summary**: N/A
* **UniProt Summary**: Sequence-specific RNA-binding protein which plays an important role in the establishment and maintenance of the early morphology of cortical neurons during embryonic development. Acts as a translation repressor and controls a translationally regulated cell morphology program to ensure proper structuring of the nervous system. Translational control depends on recognition of its binding element within target mRNAs which consists of a mandatory UAG trimer upstream of a U/A-rich motif. Associated with polysomes (PubMed:25737280). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25737280}.
No Pfam Domain information is available for this gene.
