Function |
Plays a role in RNA-mediated gene silencing by both micro-RNAs (miRNAs) and short interfering RNAs (siRNAs). Required for miRNA-dependent translational repression and siRNA-dependent endonucleolytic cleavage of complementary mRNAs by argonaute family proteins. As scaffoldng protein associates with argonaute proteins bound to partially complementary mRNAs and simultaneously can recruit CCR4-NOT and PAN deadenylase complexes. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16289642, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19167051, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19304925, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21981923}.
