Mammalian smaug is a translational repressor that forms cytoplasmic foci similar to stress granules
Cytoplasmic events depending on RNA-binding proteins contribute to the fine-tuning of gene expression. Sterile α motif-containing RNA-binding proteins constitute a novel family of post-transcriptional regulators that recognize a specific RNA sequence motif known as Smaug recognition element (SRE).
