Description

Predicted to have mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity; protein homodimerization activity; and translation regulator activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; neural crest cell fate specification; and regulation of mRNA modification. Localizes to nucleus. Used to study autism spectrum disorder and fragile X syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in fragile X syndrome; fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome; and premature ovarian failure. Is expressed in central nervous system; neurons; and testis. Orthologous to human FMR1 (FMRP translational regulator 1).
