Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: This gene encodes a protein that is important in mRNA degradation. The encoded protein is a component of a decapping complex that promotes efficient removal of the monomethylguanosine (m7G) cap from mRNAs, as part of the 5' to 3' mRNA decay pathway. Mutations in this gene have been identified in human patients with an autosomal recessive form of intellectual disability. [provided by RefSeq, May 2017].
  • UniProt Summary: Binds single-stranded RNA. Involved in the process of mRNA degradation and in the positive regulation of mRNA decapping. May play a role in spermiogenesis and oogenesis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16364915, ECO:0000269|PubMed:17533573, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18678652, ECO:0000269|PubMed:25701870}.
