UniProtKB description:  Nucleoside-triphosphatase (NTPase) involved in ribosome recycling by mediating ribosome disassembly (PubMed:20122402, PubMed:21448132). Able to hydrolyze ATP, GTP, UTP and CTP (PubMed:20122402). Splits ribosomes into free 60S subunits and tRNA- and mRNA-bound 40S subunits (PubMed:20122402, PubMed:21448132). Acts either after canonical termination facilitated by release factors (ETF1/eRF1) or after recognition of stalled and vacant ribosomes by mRNA surveillance factors (PELO/Pelota) (PubMed:20122402, PubMed:21448132). Involved in the No-Go Decay (NGD) pathway: recruited to stalled ribosomes by the Pelota-HBS1L complex, and drives the disassembly of stalled ribosomes, followed by degradation of damaged mRNAs as part of the NGD pathway (PubMed:21448132). Also plays a role in quality control of translation of mitochondrial outer membrane-localized mRNA (PubMed:29861391). As part of the PINK1-regulated signaling, ubiquitinated by CNOT4 upon mitochondria damage; this modification generates polyubiquitin signals that recruit autophagy receptors to the mitochondrial outer membrane and initiate mitophagy (PubMed:29861391). RNASEL-specific protein inhibitor which antagonizes the binding of 2-5A (5'-phosphorylated 2',5'-linked oligoadenylates) to RNASEL (PubMed:9660177). Negative regulator of the anti-viral effect of the interferon-regulated 2-5A/RNASEL pathway (PubMed:9660177, PubMed:9847332, PubMed:11585831).
