Interacts with ZC3H3.
The RRM domain is essential for specific adenine bases recognition in the poly(A) tail but not sufficient for poly(A) binding.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see GBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.

RNAi generated by PCR using primers directed to this gene causes a cell growth and viability phenotype when assayed in Kc167 and S2R+ cells.
Pabp2 stimulates poly(A) polymerase and is able to control poly(A) tail length in vitro.
Pabp2 is identified as an RRM-type RNA-binding protein that may control important aspects of development.
