|
| Function |
Necessary for the degradation of mRNAs, both in normal mRNA turnover and in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Removes the 7- methyl guanine cap structure from mRNA molecules, yielding a 5'- phosphorylated mRNA fragment and 7m-GDP. Contributes to the transactivation of target genes after stimulation by TGFB1. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11836524, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12417715}.
|
| Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm, P-body. Nucleus. Note=Co- localizes with NANOS3 in the processing bodies (By similarity). Predominantly cytoplasmic, in processing bodies (PB). Nuclear, after TGFB1 treatment. Translocation to the nucleus depends on interaction with SMAD4. {ECO:0000250}.
|
| Tissue Specificity |
Detected in heart, brain, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, liver, kidney and pancreas. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11836524}.
