Grouped By:  Matching UniProtKB accession

UniProtKB description:  Endonuclease which shows activity towards both DNA and RNA substrates (PubMed:14508492, PubMed:26808625). Has a role in translation regulation throught its association with the with the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) (PubMed:14508492, PubMed:26808625). Plays a role in spermatogenesis probably by negatively regulating piwi expression in the germline (PubMed:26808625). Together with piwi, might be involved in transposon repression in the germline (PubMed:26808625).
