Background： This gene includes 11 exons spanning 25 kb and maps to a region of chromosome 16 that is sometimes deleted in breast and prostrate cancer. The second intron contains an apparently intronless gene, C16orf3, that is transcribed in the opposite orientation. This gene is a putative tumor suppressor gene. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2013],

Function：disease:Defects in GAS8 may be a cause of infertility in male lacking gametocytes.,function:Cytoskeletal linker which binds microtubules and probably functions in axonemal and non-axonemal dynein regulation. May play a role in the spermatozoa motility.,similarity:Belongs to the GAS8 family.,subcellular location:Associates with microtubules (By similarity). Localized to the cytoplasm of round spermatids, the tails of elongating spermatids, and mature spermatid tail bundles protruding into the lumen, and in the flagellum of epididymal spermatozoa.,tissue specificity:Expressed in the heart, skeletal muscle, pancreas and liver. Weakly or not expressed in brain, placenta, lung and kidney.,
