Function
developmental stage:Expressed in all of the transcriptionally active stages of germ cell development from spermatogonia through spermatocytes to round spermatids.,function:RNA-binding protein which may be involved in spermatogenesis. Required for sperm development, possibly by participating in pre-mRNA splicing in the testis.,miscellaneous:The RBMY1 proteins are encoded by strongly repeated regions of the Y chromosome, mostly within the AZFb region. The exact number of functional copies is unclear and may vary between individues, and some of them may represent pseudogenes. The proteins are very similar, which gives their indidual characterization difficult. Thus, most experiments do not discriminate between the different members. One can therefore suppose that reported interactions with a RBMY1 protein involve all the proteins.,similarity:Contains 1 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domain.,su
