| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity and histone binding activity. Acts upstream of or within anterior/posterior pattern specification; chromatin remodeling; and spermatogenesis. Located in chromocenter and male germ cell nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including branchial arch; genitourinary system; gut; limb; and nervous system. Orthologous to human SCMH1 (Scm polycomb group protein homolog 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for an allele lacking the SPM domain exhibit partial penetrance of posterior vertebral transformations and male infertility with azoospermia and arrest of spermatogenesis. Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit abnormal hematopoiesis but normal fertility and skeleton. [provided by MGI curators] |
