Ago2 - argonaute RISC catalytic component 2

Predicted to enable several functions, including endoribonuclease activity, producing 5'-phosphomonoesters; nucleic acid binding activity; and protein C-terminus binding activity. Involved in negative regulation of amyloid precursor protein biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Orthologous to human AGO2 (argonaute RISC catalytic component 2).
