Studies in mice show that this gene is expressed during embryonic development, and specifically in the testis in adult mice, suggesting that it may play a role in regulating genes in germ cells. Alternative splicing of this gene results in several transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]. * **UniProt Summary**: May be involved in transcriptional regulation during the post-meiotic stages of spermatogenesis. {ECO:0000250}. |SCAN| |zf-C2H2| |spermatogenesis| |male gamete generation| |gamete generation| |multicellular organismal reproductive process| |sexual reproduction| |multicellular organism reproduction| |multi-organism reproductive process| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |DNA binding| |DNA-binding transcription factor activity, RNA polymerase II-specific| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp261|ABT-702 5μM R06 exp261]]|1.76| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
