                                Decapping is a key step in general and regulated mRNA decay. The protein encoded by this gene is a decapping enzyme. This protein and another decapping enzyme form a decapping complex, which interacts with the nonsense-mediated decay factor hUpf1 and may be recruited to mRNAs containing premature termination codons. This protein also participates in the TGF-beta signaling pathway. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants.

                            Function
                            
                                function:Necessary for the degradation of mRNAs, both in normal mRNA turnover and in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Removes the 7-methyl guanine cap structure from mRNA molecules, yielding a 5'-phosphorylated mRNA fragment and 7m-GDP. Contributes to the transactivation of target genes after stimulation by TGFB1.,similarity:Belongs to the DCP1 family.,subcellular location:Predominantly cytoplasmic, in processing bodies (PB). Nuclear, after TGFB1 treatment. Translocation to the nucleus depends on interaction with SMAD4.,subunit:Forms a complex with EDC3, DCP2, DDX6 and EDC4/HEDLS, within this complex directly interacts with EDC3. Binds DCP1B, UPF1 and SMAD4. Part of a cytoplasmic complex containing proteins involved in mRNA decay, including XRN1 and LSM1. Interacts with PNRC2.,tissue specificity:Detected in heart, brain, placenta, lung, skeletal muscle, liver, kidney and pancreas.,
