RNA-binding protein involved in translational regulation and required for long-term memory (PubMed:28525754, PubMed:29105522). Required in mushroom body gamma neurons for long-term memory in male courtship (PubMed:17965711, PubMed:23083740). Binds to mRNA 3'-UTRs (PubMed:20547833, PubMed:26638074, PubMed:24830287, PubMed:26095367, PubMed:32165583). In its monomeric form, acts as a translational repressor of genes involved in neuronal growth, synapse formation and protein turnover (PubMed:20547833, PubMed:26638074, PubMed:32165583). In its amyloid-like oligomeric form, acts as a translational activator (PubMed:26638074, PubMed:32165583). The monomeric form reduces poly(A) tail length and destabilizes mRNA while the oligomeric form protects and elongates the poly(A) tail and stabilizes mRNA (PubMed:26638074). Involved in asymmetric cell division in the central nervous system (PubMed:21900268). Plays a role in synapse formation and morphology at neuromuscular junctions by modulating the translation of the tumor suppressor brat (PubMed:29105522). Required for the progression of spermatogenesis through meiosis and for sperm differentiation (PubMed:23209437). During sperm differentiation, required to asymmetrically localize and activate the translation of protein kinase aPKC mRNAs which is necessary for spermatid cyst polarization (PubMed:24830287). Also required during spermatid cyst polarization for localization and translation of its own mRNA (PubMed:24830287). {Experimental EvidencePubMed:17965711, Experimental EvidencePubMed:20547833, Experimental EvidencePubMed:21900268, Experimental EvidencePubMed:23083740, Experimental EvidencePubMed:23209437, Experimental EvidencePubMed:24830287, Experimental EvidencePubMed:26095367, Experimental EvidencePubMed:26638074, Experimental EvidencePubMed:28525754, Experimental EvidencePubMed:29105522, Experimental EvidencePubMed:32165583}. [Isoform A]: Required for initial memory acquisition (PubMed:26095367, PubMed:28525754). Following subsequent late dopaminergic pathway activation, recruits isoform B into a complex to activate translation of CaMKII which is required for long-term memory consolidation (PubMed:26095367). {Experimental EvidencePubMed:26095367, Experimental EvidencePubMed:28525754}. | Assigned Ontology terms |
