Summary
Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
This gene encodes the human homolog of mouse morc and like the mouse protein it is testis-specific. Mouse studies support a testis-specific function since only male knockout mice are infertile; infertility is the only apparent defect. These studies furthe |
