Cold-inducible mRNA binding protein that enhances global protein synthesis at both physiological and mild hypothermic temperatures. Reduces the relative abundance of microRNAs, when overexpressed. Enhances phosphoryaltion of translation initiation factors and active polysome formation.
Specificity
Natural and recombinant Mouse RNA-binding protein 3
Subcellular Location
Nucleus Cytoplasm Cell projection dendrite Localizes in mRNA granules in dentrites.
