| UniProt Protein Function: | MORC1: Required for spermatogenesis.Protein type: Oxidoreductase; Cancer Testis Antigen (CTA)Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 3q13 |
| UniProt Protein Details: | |
| NCBI Summary: | 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 further support a role for this protein early in spermatogenesis, possibly by affecting entry into apoptosis because testis from knockout mice show greatly increased numbers of apoptotic cells.
