The following text describes a protein:
Function:
RNA-binding protein, which regulates the expression of proteins required to control developmental timing of events during the L2 to L3 larval stage switch. Binds to the 3'UTR of the transcript of the heterochronic protein lin-28 to post-transcriptionally negatively regulate its expression in certain tissue types in the later larval stages. During larval development, controls the timing of seam cell division and terminal differentiation into adult alae. In vitro, it can also bind to DNA through its first zinc finger. May bind directly or indirectly to the promoter of the sex-determining factor xol-1 to activate its transcription. Its activation of xol-1 transcription controls sex determination and X chromosome dosage compensation to promote male development. Through the negative regulation of lin-28 transcript, it also has a role in the fox-1-sex-1-mediated determination of sexual fate. Acts in the intestine to play a role in regulating adult lifespan.
Subcellular Localization:
Nucleus. Cytoplasm. Note=In embryos, diffusely accumulates in the nucleus at the 20- to 30-cell stage, but nuclear localization decreases after the 200-cell stage. Diffusely localized in the nucleus and cytoplasm during the L3 larval stage.
Domain:
The Zinc finger domains 1 and 5 bind single-stranded and double-stranded RNAs. The Zinc finger domain 1 binds DNA in vitro.
