Primary Identifier | MGI:1918382 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 18 | NCBI Gene Number | 71132 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables calcium ion binding activity and protein domain specific binding activity. Predicted to be involved in calcium-mediated signaling and sperm capacitation. Located in cytoplasm and sperm flagellum. Used to study male infertility. Orthologous to human CABYR (calcium binding tyrosine phosphorylation regulated). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout affects sperm flagellum morphology, resulting in reduced sperm motility. These mutant males are subfertile. [provided by MGI curators] |
