- Description
- Exhibits piRNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including gene silencing by RNA; germ cell development; and piRNA metabolic process. Localizes to P granule. Is expressed in several structures, including blastodisc; central nervous system; eye; reproductive system; and unfertilized egg. Orthologous to several human genes including PIWIL1 (piwi like RNA-mediated gene silencing 1).
