| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Involved in spermatogenesis. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including protein-containing complex assembly; regulation of protein localization; and spermatid development. Located in cytoplasm and sperm head-tail coupling apparatus. Is active in sperm flagellum and sperm head. Is expressed in central nervous system; dorsal root ganglion; and neural retina. Used to study male infertility and spermatogenic failure 31. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 31. Orthologous to human PMFBP1 (polyamine modulated factor 1 binding protein 1). PHENOTYPE: Male mice homozygous for a null allele are infertile due to acephalic spermatozoa.
