description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Involved in flagellated sperm motility. Located in sperm midpiece. Orthologous to human GARIN2 (golgi associated RAB2 interactor family member 2). PHENOTYPE: While one homozygous null allele shows no gross physical abnormalities and normal male fertility, with normal testes, sperm counts, sperm motility and spermatogenesis, another knock-out allele shows small testes in males and enlarged spleen and thymus in females.
