Ago4 - argonaute RISC component 4

Predicted to enable double-stranded RNA binding activity; miRNA binding activity; and single-stranded RNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in RNA metabolic process and gene silencing by miRNA. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including male gonad development; meiotic nuclear division; and miRNA metabolic process. Predicted to be located in P-body; cytosol; and nucleus. Predicted to be part of RISC complex and RISC-loading complex. Orthologous to human AGO4 (argonaute RISC component 4).
