CC -!- FUNCTION: Plays a central role during spermatogenesis by repressing
CC transposable elements and preventing their mobilization, which is
CC essential for the germline integrity. Acts via the piRNA metabolic
CC process, which mediates the repression of transposable elements during
CC meiosis by forming complexes composed of piRNAs and Piwi proteins and
CC governs the methylation and subsequent repression of transposons. Its
CC association with pi-bodies suggests a participation in the primary
CC piRNAs metabolic process. Required prior to the pachytene stage to
CC facilitate the production of multiple types of piRNAs, including those
CC associated with repeats involved in the regulation of retrotransposons.
CC May act by mediating protein-protein interactions during germ cell
CC maturation (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Interacts with DDX4, PIWIL1, RANBP9 and TDRD1. {ECO:0000250}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=Component of the
CC meiotic nuage, also named P granule, a germ-cell-specific organelle
CC required to repress transposon activity during meiosis. Specifically
CC localizes to pi-bodies, a subset of the nuage which contains primary
CC piRNAs (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
