Facts about Roquin-2.
This process does not involve miRNAs. In follicular helper T (Tfh) cells, represses of ICOS and TNFRSF4 expression, thus preventing spontaneous Tfh cell differentiation, germinal centre B-cell differentiation in the absence of immunization and autoimmunity.

Expressed in spleen, testis, ovary and small intestine.
Cytoplasm, P-body. During stress, such as that induced by arsenite, localizes to cytosolic stress granules. Localization to stress granules, but not to P-bodies, depends upon the RING-type zinc finger.
