Igf2bp1 - insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 1

Predicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity; mRNA 5'-UTR binding activity; and translation regulator activity. Acts upstream of or within neuronal stem cell population maintenance and pallium cell proliferation in forebrain. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including cytoplasmic stress granule; dendritic spine; and neuronal cell body. Predicted to be part of CRD-mediated mRNA stability complex and ribonucleoprotein complex. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including early conceptus; eye; forebrain; gonad; and intestine. Orthologous to human IGF2BP1 (insulin like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 1).
