CC -!- FUNCTION: ATP-dependent RNA helicase required during spermatogenesis to
CC repress transposable elements and preventing their mobilization, which
CC is 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.
CC Involved in the secondary piRNAs metabolic process, the production of
CC piRNAs in fetal male germ cells through a ping-pong amplification
CC cycle. Required for PIWIL2 slicing-triggered piRNA biogenesis: helicase
CC activity enables utilization of one of the slice cleavage fragments
CC generated by PIWIL2 and processing these pre-piRNAs into piRNAs.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61496}.
CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY:
CC Reaction=ATP + H2O = ADP + H(+) + phosphate; Xref=Rhea:RHEA:13065,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:15377, ChEBI:CHEBI:15378, ChEBI:CHEBI:30616,
CC ChEBI:CHEBI:43474, ChEBI:CHEBI:456216; EC=3.6.4.13;
CC Evidence={ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61496};
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Found in a mRNP complex, at least composed of TDRD1, TDRD6,
CC TDRD7 and DDX4. Interacts with RANBP9. Interacts with RANBP10.
CC Interacts with PIWIL2 and MAEL. Interacts with ARNTL/BMAL1 and CLOCK.
CC Interacts with Tex19.1 and, probably, Tex19.2.
CC {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61496}.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61496}.
CC Cytoplasm, perinuclear region {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61496}.
CC Note=Component of the meiotic nuage, also named P granule, a germ-cell-
CC specific organelle required to repress transposon activity during
CC meiosis. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q61496}.
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Testis.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the DEAD box helicase family. DDX4/VASA
CC subfamily. {ECO:0000305}.
