Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to enable alpha-tubulin binding activity and beta-tubulin binding activity. Involved in spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Is expressed in brain and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in acute myeloid leukemia. Orthologous to human DLEC1 (DLEC1 cilia and flagella associated protein). PHENOTYPE: Mice hmozygous for a null allele exhibit male infertility with oligozoospermia, asthenozoospermia, and abnormal sperm morphology. [provided by MGI curators] |
