SAMD4A
Sterile alpha motif domain containing 4A is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SAMD4A gene. [5]
Function
Sterile alpha motifs (SAMs) in proteins such as SAMD4A are part of an RNA-binding domain that functions as a posttranscriptional regulator by binding to an RNA sequence motif known as the Smaug recognition element, which was named after the Drosophila Smaug protein (Baez and Boccaccio, 2005 [PubMed 16221671]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008].
gollark: That's actually one of the best ways to put it if you want people to spend several seconds wondering "what?".
gollark: Also also, "convention over configuration" being stupid. Yes, the choice of four spaces vs two isn't too significant, but being able to choose means you'll have code you can possibly read a bit more easily, and also public/privateness via *capitalization* just (in my opinion) looks ugly and is annoying if you want to change privacy.
gollark: i.e. generic slices/maps/channels but not actual generics, == being ***maaaaagic*** (admittedly like in most languages, I think), and `make`/`new`.
gollark: Also, as well as that, how it just special-cases stuff instead of implementing reusable solutions.
gollark: e.g. no map function existing or even being possible means that you have *readable* code with a for loop, but it's harder to understand *why that's there* and *what it's for*.
