What's a GeneRIF?

Tex11 regulates genome-wide recombination rates in both sexes in a dosage-dependent manner. An intronless autosomal Tex11 transgene functionally substitutes for the X-linked Tex11 gene, providing genetic evidence for the X-to-autosomal retrotransposition evolution phenomenon.
Title: TEX11 is mutated in infertile men with azoospermia and regulates genome-wide recombination rates in mouse.
mouse spermatogonial stem cells expressed Tex11, Hpip, and Esr2 but not Esr1, and in cultured cells, TEX11 competed with Esr2 for binding to HPIP.
Title: TEX11 modulates germ cell proliferation by competing with estrogen receptor β for the binding to HPIP.
Tex11 was first identified from mouse spermatogonia and was specifically expressed in mouse testis.
Title: An abundance of X-linked genes expressed in spermatogonia.
Zip4h (Tex11), a male germ cell specific X-linked gene was isolated. Zip4h(-/Y) mutant mice were fertile. Analysis of spermatocytes revealed a delay in meiotic double strand break repair and decreased crossover formation.
Title: ZIP4H (TEX11) deficiency in the mouse impairs meiotic double strand break repair and the regulation of crossing over.
TEX11 promotes initiation and/or maintenance of synapsis and formation of crossovers, and may provide a physical link between these two meiotic processes.
Title: Meiotic failure in male mice lacking an X-linked factor.
Tex11 forms discrete foci on meiotic chromosomes. Tex11 is essential for meiosis and fertility in males. Tex11 promotes both chromosomal synapsis and crossover formation in mice and may link these two meiotic processes by interacting with Sycp2 in vivo.
Title: Meiotic failure in male mice lacking an X-linked factor.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
