CC -!- FUNCTION: Required for RNA-mediated gene silencing (RNAi) by the RNA-
CC induced silencing complex (RISC). The 'minimal RISC' appears to include
CC AGO2 bound to a short guide RNA such as a microRNA (miRNA) or short
CC interfering RNA (siRNA). These guide RNAs direct RISC to complementary
CC mRNAs that are targets for RISC-mediated gene silencing. The precise
CC mechanism of gene silencing depends on the degree of complementarity
CC between the miRNA or siRNA and its target. Binding of RISC to a
CC perfectly complementary mRNA generally results in silencing due to
CC endonucleolytic cleavage of the mRNA specifically by AGO2. Binding of
CC RISC to a partially complementary mRNA results in silencing through
CC inhibition of translation, and this is independent of endonuclease
CC activity. May inhibit translation initiation by binding to the 7-
CC methylguanosine cap, thereby preventing the recruitment of the
CC translation initiation factor eIF4-E. May also inhibit translation
CC initiation via interaction with EIF6, which itself binds to the 60S
CC ribosomal subunit and prevents its association with the 40S ribosomal
CC subunit. The inhibition of translational initiation leads to the
CC accumulation of the affected mRNA in cytoplasmic processing bodies (P-
CC bodies), where mRNA degradation may subsequently occur. In some cases
CC RISC-mediated translational repression is also observed for miRNAs that
CC perfectly match the 3' untranslated region (3'-UTR). Can also up-
CC regulate the translation of specific mRNAs under certain growth
CC conditions. Binds to the AU element of the 3'-UTR of the TNF (TNF-
CC alpha) mRNA and up-regulates translation under conditions of serum
CC starvation. Also required for transcriptional gene silencing (TGS), in
CC which short RNAs known as antigene RNAs or agRNAs direct the
CC transcriptional repression of complementary promoter regions. Regulates
CC lymphoid and erythroid development and function, and this is
CC independent of endonuclease activity. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03031,

CC Name=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with DICER1 through its Piwi domain and with TARBP2
CC during assembly of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). Together,
CC DICER1, AGO2 and TARBP2 constitute the trimeric RISC loading complex
CC (RLC), or micro-RNA (miRNA) loading complex (miRLC). Within the
CC RLC/miRLC, DICER1 and TARBP2 are required to process precursor miRNAs
CC (pre-miRNAs) to mature miRNAs and then load them onto AGO2. AGO2 bound
CC to the mature miRNA constitutes the minimal RISC and may subsequently
CC dissociate from DICER1 and TARBP2. Note however that the term RISC has
CC also been used to describe the trimeric RLC/miRLC. The formation of
CC RISC complexes containing siRNAs rather than miRNAs appears to occur
CC independently of DICER1 (PubMed:16357216). Interacts with AGO1. Also
CC interacts with DDB1, DDX5, DDX6, DDX20, DHX30, DHX36, DDX47, DHX9,
CC ELAVL, FXR1, GEMIN4, HNRNPF, IGF2BP1, ILF3, IMP8, MATR3, PABPC1, PRMT5,
CC P4HA1, P4HB, RBM4, SART3, TNRC6A, TNRC6B, UPF1 and YBX1. Interacts with
CC the P-body components DCP1A and XRN1. Associates with polysomes and
CC messenger ribonucleoproteins (mNRPs). Interacts with RBM4; the
CC interaction is modulated under stress-induced conditions, occurs under
CC both cell proliferation and differentiation conditions and in an
CC RNA- and phosphorylation-independent manner. Interacts with LIMD1, WTIP
CC and AJUBA (By similarity). Interacts with TRIM71 (PubMed:19898466,
CC PubMed:22508726, PubMed:22735451). Interacts with APOBEC3G in an RNA-
CC dependent manner. Interacts with APOBEC3A, APOBEC3C, APOBEC3F and
CC APOBEC3H. Interacts with DICER1, TARBP2, EIF6, MOV10 and RPL7A (60S
CC ribosome subunit); they form a large RNA-induced silencing complex
CC (RISC). Interacts with FMR1. Interacts with ZFP36 (By similarity).
CC Interacts with RC3H1; the interaction is RNA independent
CC (PubMed:25697406). Interacts with FAM172A (PubMed:29311329). Found in a
CC complex composed of AGO2, CHD7 and FAM172A (PubMed:29311329). Interacts
CC with SND1 and SYT11 (PubMed:24882364). Interacts with CLNK
CC (PubMed:26009488). Interacts with GARRE1 (By similarity).

CC Note=Translational repression of mRNAs results in their recruitment to
CC P-bodies. Translocation to the nucleus requires IMP8.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03031}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Ubiquitous expression in 9.5 day embryos with
CC highest levels in forebrain, heart, limb buds, and branchial arches.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15284456}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The Piwi domain may perform RNA cleavage by a mechanism similar
CC to that of RNase H. However, while RNase H utilizes a triad of Asp-Asp-
CC Glu (DDE) for metal ion coordination, this protein appears to utilize a
CC triad of Asp-Asp-His (DDH). {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03031}.
CC -!- PTM: Hydroxylated. 4-hydroxylation appears to enhance protein stability
CC but is not required for miRNA-binding or endonuclease activity.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03031}.
CC -!- PTM: Ubiquitinated on surface-exposed lysines by a SCF-like E3
CC ubiquitin-protein ligase complex containing ZSWIM8 during target-
CC directed microRNA degradation (TDMD), a process that mediates
CC degradation of microRNAs (miRNAs). Ubiquitination by the SCF-like E3
CC ubiquitin-protein ligase complex containing ZSWIM8 leads to its
CC subsequent degradation, thereby exposing miRNAs for degradation. ZSWIM8
CC recognizes and binds AGO2 when it is engaged with a TDMD target.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UKV8}.
CC -!- PTM: Phosphorylation at Ser-388 by AKT3; leads to up-regulate
CC translational repression of microRNA target and down-regulate
CC endonucleolytic cleavage. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UKV8}.
CC -!- PTM: A phosphorylation cycle of C-terminal serine cluster (Ser-825-Ser-
CC 835) regulates the release of target mRNAs. Target-binding leads to
CC phosphorylation of these residues by CSNK1A1, which reduces the
CC affinity of AGO2 for mRNA and enables target release. The ANKRD52-PPP6C
CC phosphatase complex dephosphorylates the residues, which primes AGO2
CC for binding a new target. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9UKV8}.
CC -!- DISRUPTION PHENOTYPE: Embryonic death with a strong defect in neural
CC tube closure and apparent cardiac failure.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15284456}.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the argonaute family. Ago subfamily.
CC {ECO:0000255|HAMAP-Rule:MF_03031}.
