Protein name Insulin-like growth factor 2 mRNA-binding protein 2 (IGF2 mRNA-binding protein 2) (IMP-2) (Hepatocellular carcinoma autoantigen p62) (IGF-II mRNA-binding protein 2) (VICKZ family member 2)
Protein function RNA-binding factor that recruits target transcripts to cytoplasmic protein-RNA complexes (mRNPs). This transcript 'caging' into mRNPs allows mRNA transport and transient storage. It also modulates the rate and location at which target transcript
