Function

MGN_DROME Participates in the bidirectional intercellular signaling between the posterior follicle cells and oocyte to establish spatial coordinates that induces axis formation. Complex with tsu is essential for cytoplasmic localization of oskar in the posterior pole of oocytes. Required for the polarization of the oocyte microtubule cytoskeleton.[1] [2] [3] [4]
