Predicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity and miRNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including adult locomotory behavior; positive regulation of RIG-I signaling pathway; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to be located in P-body; cytoplasmic stress granule; and nucleoplasm. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cerebellar ataxia type 47. Orthologous to human PUM1 (pumilio RNA binding family member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
