About Sycp2

Summary

Predicted to enable DNA binding activity. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including fertilization; male genitalia morphogenesis; and meiotic nuclear division. Located in lateral element. Is expressed in meiotic germ cell of ovary and primary oocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 1. Orthologous to human SYCP2 (synaptonemal complex protein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
