| Short Name | GLD1-like |
| description | GLD-1 from Caenorhabditis nematodes belongs to the Signal Transduction and Activation of RNA (STAR)-domain family of RNA-binding proteins [, ], conserved throughout eukaryotes. All STAR proteins contain maxi K-homology (KH)-RNA binding domain. STAR proteins control a wide range of developmental events by regulating alternative splicing and translational repression of specific mRNA targets. GLD-1 functions in Caenorhabditis elegans as a germline-specific translational repressor [].This entry also includes protein held out wings (also known as how) from Drosophila melanogaster. How is a RNA-binding protein involved in the control of muscular and cardiac activity []. It also mediates cell adhesion processes []. |
