Stau1 - staufen double-stranded RNA binding protein 1

Enables RNA binding activity. Involved in dendritic transport of messenger ribonucleoprotein complex. Acts upstream of or within intracellular mRNA localization. Located in cytoplasmic stress granule. Part of ribonucleoprotein complex. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; central nervous system; early conceptus; gonad; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human STAU1 (staufen double-stranded RNA binding protein 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
