Structure of the STAR (signal transduction and activation of RNA) domain of GLD-1 bound to RNA
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23630077
Function
[GLD1_CAEEL] Germ line-specific tumor suppressor essential for oogenesis. Controls the spatial pattern of translation of multiple oogenesis specific mRNAs (e.g. yolk receptor rme-2) by repression of translation during early meiotic prophase (leptotene to pachytene) and then derepression of translation during diplotene/ diakinesis, following its degradation. Also functions to promote the male sexual fate in the hermaphrodite germline but not the male germline. Functions redundantly with gld-2 to promote the initiation of meiotic development and/or inhibit stem cell proliferation.
About this Structure
