pfam19687: MARF1_LOTUS (This model is not part of the current CDD release)
MARF1 LOTUS domain
This is the LOTUS domain which is repeated in the C-terminal of of Meiosis regulator and mRNA stability factor 1 (MARF1) protein, an essential regulator of oogenesis required for completion of meiosis and retrotransposon silencing, key to maintain germline integrity. This domain provides RNA-binding properties to this protein, acting as an adapter to recruit targets for the effector domain NYN (pfam01936) at the N-terminal (RNase activity).
