Summary: Predicted to enable ribosomal large subunit binding activity and translation initiation factor activity. Predicted to be involved in assembly of large subunit precursor of preribosome; ribosome biogenesis; and translational initiation. Predicted to be part of preribosome, large subunit precursor. Predicted to be active in cytosol and nucleolus. Is expressed in several structures, including embryonic/larval midgut; embryonic/larval midgut primordium; embryonic/larval muscle system; larval imaginal tissue; and trunk mesoderm. Orthologous to human EIF6 (eukaryotic translation initiation factor 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
