Function
mRNA-binding protein which interacts with a range of target mRNAs including SERPINE1, ACTA2, CCN2 and COL4A1 and may promote extracellular matrix production. Binds to the 3'-UTR of SERPINE1 mRNA and stabilizes the mRNA, possibly by competing for binding with SERBP1 and preventing SERBP1-mediated mRNA degradation. Also binds to the 3'-UTR of ACTA2.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted; Cytoplasm, perinuclear region
Tissue Specificity: Expression is enriched in both male and female reproductive organs, including the testis, epididymis, seminal vesicles, coagulating glands, ovary and uterus, and in various non-reproductive organs such as brain, thymus and liver. In testis, expressed in both germ cells and Sertoli cells. Also expressed at low levels in the kidney. Expressed during neocortex and cerebellum development
