Based on studies in mice, binding of MSI1 to ROBO3.1 mRNA positively regulates ROBO3.1 mRNA translation, resulting in increased levels of ROBO3.1 protein. Similar to Robo3 knockout mice, Msi1 knockout mice also show sever abnormalities in axonal midline crossing and migration of precerebellar neurons (Kuwako et al. 2010).
