Deleted in Azoospermia 1 Protein

Engelsk definition

An RNA recognition motif protein that is essential for SPERMATOGENESIS. It promotes entry of male GERM CELLS to MEIOSIS, possibly by regulating the translation of mRNAs. DAZ1 occurs within a cluster of similar genes on the Y CHROMOSOME that is prone to genetic deletions and duplications. Deletions in these genes, including DAZ1, are associated with AZOOSPERMIA and OLIGOSPERMIA.
