Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in Notch signaling pathway and sperm flagellum assembly. Acts upstream of or within sperm axoneme assembly. Located in centrosome and sperm midpiece. Used to study oligoasthenoteratozoospermia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 49. Orthologous to human CFAP58 (cilia and flagella associated protein 58). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous knockout affects spermatogenesis and leads to male infertility. [provided by MGI curators] |
