name: small RNA binding translational repressor activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "A translational repressor activity that binds to a single-stranded small regulatory RNA (either a miRNA or a siRNA) to guide it to its target mRNA." [PMID:27184117, PMID:34117606]
comment: This term is intended for activities such as that mediated by argonaute in the RISC complex, that bring a miRNA or an siRNA to their target mRNA.
