Description
Product Characteristics: DND1 contains 2 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains. It may play a role during primordial germ cell (PGC) development. However, DND1 does not seem to be essential for PGC migration.
Target Information: This gene encodes a protein that binds to microRNA-targeting sequences of mRNAs, inhibiting microRNA-mediated repression. Reduced expression of this gene has been implicated in tongue squamous cell carcinoma. Two pseudogenes of this gene are located on the long arm of chromosome 17. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]
