smg | Smaug (smg) encodes the founding member of the SMAUG family of sequence-specific RNA-binding proteins. During the maternal-to-zygotic transition in early embryos, the smg product inhibits the translation and induces the degradation of hundreds of maternal mRNAs by recruitment of the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex, thereby controlling embryonic patterning, activation of zygotic transcription, and early embryonic cell cycles.
