What This Gene Does
Predicted to enable dynein complex binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cytoskeleton organization; homologous chromosome segregation; and spindle localization. Predicted to act upstream of or within several processes, including double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; meiotic telomere clustering; and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in chromosome; membrane; and nuclear envelope. Predicted to be part of meiotic nuclear membrane microtubule tethering complex. Predicted to be active in chromosome; meiotic spindle pole; and nuclear outer membrane. Implicated in primary ovarian insufficiency and spermatogenic failure 88.
