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. |mRNA CDS binding| |polysome binding| |negative regulation of cytoplasmic translation| |regulation of cytoplasmic translation| |polysome| |neuron migration| |negative regulation of translation| |negative regulation of cellular amide metabolic process| |regulation of translation| |in utero embryonic development| |regulation of cellular amide metabolic process| |cell morphogenesis involved in neuron differentiation| |posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression| |cell morphogenesis involved in differentiation| |chordate embryonic development| |embryo development ending in birth or egg hatching| |cell morphogenesis| |neuron development| |cellular component morphogenesis| |cell migration| |embryo development| |neuron differentiation| |negative regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |localization of cell| |cell motility| |negative regulation of protein metabolic process| |locomotion| |negative regulation of cellular macromolecule biosynthetic process| |RNA binding| |negative regulation of macromolecule biosynthetic process| |negative regulation of cellular biosynthetic process| |generation of neurons| |negative regulation of biosynthetic process| |movement of cell or subcellular component| |neurogenesis| |cell development| |negative regulation of gene expression| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp13|Chloramphenicol 20μM R00 exp13]]|-2.25| |[[:results:exp32|Rifampicin 10μM R00 exp32]]|-2.1| |[[:results:exp391|Pomalidomide 20μM R07 exp391]]|-1.96| |[[:results:exp31|Rifampicin 1μM R00 exp31]]|-1.89| |[[:results:exp431|Rotenone 0.07μM R08 exp431]]|-1.77| |[[:results:exp288|HMS-I2 10μM R06 exp288]]|-1.72| |[[:results:exp512|Olaparib 4μM R08 exp512]]|1.85| |[[:results:exp226|Cerivastatin 0.15μM R05 exp226]]|2.07| |[[:results:exp231|Epothilone-B 0.0015μM R05 exp231]]|2.21| |[[:results:exp501|Methotrexate 0.01μM R08 exp501]]|2.3| |[[:results:exp335|Aminopterin 0.005μM R07 exp335]]|2.6| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
