Summary
This gene is the ortholog of the mouse gametogenetin-binding protein 1 gene. In human, the open reading frame is disrupted by a nonsense mutation after 8-aa; consequently, this gene is currently considered to be a unitary pseudogene in human even though it is functional in other mammals.

Expression
Biased expression in testis (RPKM 1.5), lymph node (RPKM 0.2) and 2 other tissues See more

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
