Meiob - meiosis specific with OB-fold

Predicted to enable chromatin binding activity; single-stranded DNA 3'-5' exodeoxyribonuclease activity; and single-stranded DNA binding activity. Predicted to be involved in double-strand break repair via homologous recombination; fertilization; and meiosis I. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 22. Orthologous to human MEIOB (meiosis specific with OB-fold). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
