    Summary
    Predicted to enable RNA binding activity. Involved in several processes, including muscle cell cellular homeostasis; regulation of alternative mRNA splicing, via spliceosome; and rhabdomere development. Located in nucleus; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; and sarcomere. Is expressed in several structures, including anterior-posterior subdivision of organism; embryonic/larval muscle system; imaginal disc; sensory neurons; and spermatocyte. Used to study myotonic dystrophy type 1 and myotonic dystrophy type 2. Orthologous to several human genes including MBNL1 (muscleblind like splicing regulator 1) and MBNL2 (muscleblind like splicing regulator 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
