Stra8 | Stimulated by retinoic acid gene 8 protein; Meiosis-inducer required for the transition into meiosis for both female and male germ cells. In female germ cells, required for premeiotic DNA replication and subsequent events in meiotic prophase. During spermatogenesis, next to its role in meiotic initiation, promotes (but is not required for) spermatogonial differentiation. Can associate with DNA (possibly in an indirect manner), and in vitro can activate DNA transcription. (393 aa) | ||||
Strbp | Spermatid perinuclear RNA-binding protein; Involved in spermatogenesis and sperm function. Plays a role in regulation of cell growth (By similarity). Binds to double-stranded DNA and RNA (By similarity). Binds most efficiently to poly(I:C) RNA than to poly(dI:dC) DNA (By similarity). Binds also to single-stranded poly(G) RNA (By similarity). Binds non-specifically to the mRNA PRM1 3'-UTR and adenovirus VA RNA. (672 aa) |
