Summary
Predicted to be involved in cell projection assembly; flagellated sperm motility; and negative regulation of ubiquitin-dependent protein catabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm and nucleus. Predicted to be active in sperm flagellum. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 35. Orthologous to human QRICH2 (glutamine rich 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

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.
