Protein name Protein argonaute-4 (Argonaute4) (hAgo4) (Argonaute RISC catalytic component 4) (Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2C 4) (eIF-2C 4) (eIF2C 4)
Protein function Required for RNA-mediated gene silencing (RNAi). Binds to short RNAs such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and represses the translation of mRNAs which are complementary to them. Lacks endonuclease activity and does not appear to cleave target mRNAs. Also
