Primary Identifier | MGI:1913495 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 7 | NCBI Gene Number | 66245 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable adenyl-nucleotide exchange factor activity; molecular sequestering activity; and ubiquitin protein ligase binding activity. Predicted to be involved in positive regulation of proteasomal ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process and positive regulation of protein ubiquitination. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum and extracellular space. Is expressed in dentate gyrus subgranular zone. Orthologous to human HSPBP1 (HSPA (Hsp70) binding protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a null mutation show male infertility with an arrest of male meiosis, increased male germ cell apoptosis and azoospermia. [provided by MGI curators] |
