Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables ribosomal small subunit binding activity and translation initiation factor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including behavioral response to ethanol; long-term memory; and positive regulation of filopodium assembly. Located in several cellular components, including axonal growth cone; filopodium; and neuronal cell body. Is expressed in several structures, including adult head; central nervous system; dopaminergic PPL1 neuron; intrinsic neurons; and synaptic neuropil domain. Orthologous to several human genes including BZW2 (basic leucine zipper and W2 domains 2).
FB Description
krasavietz (kra) encodes a translational regulator that is able to interact with the translation initiation factor encoded by eIF2beta. It is involved in axon guidance, long-term memory, and alcohol addiction.
