Primary Identifier | MGI:1921966 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 15 | NCBI Gene Number | 74716 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable WW domain binding activity; chromatin DNA binding activity; and transcription coactivator activity. Predicted to be involved in egg activation; male pronucleus assembly; and positive regulation of DNA-templated transcription. Predicted to act upstream of or within female pronucleus assembly. Predicted to be located in perinuclear theca; sperm flagellum; and sperm head. Predicted to be active in nucleus. Orthologous to human WBP2NL (WBP2 N-terminal like). PHENOTYPE: Male mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit normal sperm morphology, acrosomal reaction, egg activation and fertility. [provided by MGI curators] |
