germ cell-less homolog 1 (Drosophila)

spermatogenesis associated 29

Germ cell-less protein-like 1

Spermatogenesis-associated protein 29

This gene encodes a nuclear envelope protein that appears to be involved in spermatogenesis, either directly or by influencing genes that play a more direct role in the process. This multi-exon locus is the homolog of the mouse and drosophila germ cell-less gene but the human genome also contains a single-exon locus on chromosome 5 that contains an open reading frame capable of encoding a highly-related protein.
