description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Orthologous to human C3orf20 (chromosome 3 open reading frame 20). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a knock-out allele exhibit reduced male fertility associated with oligozoospermia, impaired acrosome reaction, decreased progressive motility, impaired in vivo fertilization, weak sperm-egg interactions, and defects in sperm energy metabolism.
