Facts about Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 1.
It also modulates the speed and location where target transcripts encounter the translational apparatus and shields them from endonuclease attacks or microRNA-mediated degradation. Plays a direct role in the transport and translation of transcripts necessary for axonal regeneration in adult sensory neurons (By similarity).

Mainly expressed in the embryo, including in fetal liver, fetal lung, fetal kidney, fetal thymus (at protein level). Also expressed follicles of ovary, as well as in gonocytes of testis, spermatogonia, semen, oocytes and placenta (at protein level). Expressed in various cancers, including testis and lung cancers (at protein level), as well as kidney, prostate and trachea cancers.
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Cell projection, lamellipodium. Cell projection, dendrite. Cell projection, dendritic spine. Cell projection, growth cone. Cell projection, filopodium. Cell projection, axon. In the nucleus, located in discrete foci, coinciding with the sites of ACTB transcription (By similarity). In the cytoplasm, localizes in cytoplasmic mRNP granules. Colocalizes with microtubules in growth cone filopodia and along neurites in neuronal cells (By similarity). Cytoplasmic colocalization with ACTB mRNA is partially lost at the cell periphery, suggesting releas
