The encoded protein is thought to be involved in spermatogenesis via stimulation of the CREB/CRE responsive pathway through phosphorylation of the cAMP responsive element binding protein transcription factor. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, May 2010] Expression Broad expression in testis (RPKM 10.7), spleen (RPKM 1.5) and 18 other tissues See more Orthologs mouse all
