About GGN

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:38,384,267-38,388,384 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 77 orthologues, 2 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Restricted expression toward testis (RPKM 12.5).

Summary

This gene is a germ cell-specific gene that encodes proteins that interact with POG (proliferation of germ cells). Alternatively spliced transcript variants of a similar mouse gene encode at least three different proteins, namely gametogenetin protein 1a, gametogenetin protein 2, and gametogenetin protein 3, which show a perinuclear, cytoplasmic, and nucleolar localization, respectively. These proteins regulate the localization of POG and may play a role in spermatogenesis. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
