Enables eukaryotic initiation factor 4E binding activity; nucleic acid binding activity; and ribosomal small subunit binding activity. Involved in several processes, including TORC1 signaling; cellular response to rapamycin; and posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Located in cytoplasmic stress granule. Colocalizes with TORC1 complex and polysomal ribosome. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
