Structural highlights
FunctionBRAT_DROME Plays a central role in translation repression of hb mRNA by being recruited by nos and pum to the Nanos Response Element (NRE), a 16 bp sequence in the hb mRNA 3'-UTR. Probably recruited by other proteins to repress translation of other mRNAs in other tissues. Involved in the regulation of ribosomal RNA synthesis and cell growth. Participates in abdominal segmentation and imaginal disk development. Involved in brain tumor suppression, by acting as a growth suppressor in the larval brain.[1] [2] References
