About Igf2bp2

Summary

Predicted to enable mRNA 3'-UTR binding activity and mRNA 5'-UTR binding activity. Predicted to be involved in nervous system development; regulation of RNA metabolic process; and regulation of gene expression. Predicted to act upstream of or within mRNA transport and regulation of translation. Predicted to be located in Cytoskeleton. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; early conceptus; gonad; liver; and otocyst. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in type 2 diabetes mellitus. Orthologous to human IGF2BP2 (Insulin like growth factor 2 mRNA binding protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
