| Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 67946 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Enables myosin light chain binding activity. Involved in motile cilium assembly and spermatogenesis. Located in sperm head-tail coupling apparatus. Is expressed in several structures, including adipose tissue; central nervous system; genitourinary system; gut; and liver and biliary system. Orthologous to human SPATA6 (spermatogenesis associated 6). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null allele exhibit abnormal formation of the sperm connecting piece during late spermiogenesis, leading to acephalic spermatozoa and male infertility.
