| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in P granule organization; spermatid development; and transposable element silencing by piRNA-mediated DNA methylation. Located in chromatoid body and pi-body. Is active in synapse. Is expressed in genitourinary system. Orthologous to human TDRD5 (tudor domain containing 5). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit male infertility associated with defective spermatid elongation, occasional arrested male meiosis, and apoptosis of male germ cells.
