Syce1 - synaptonemal complex central element protein 1

Predicted to be involved in synaptonemal complex organization. Predicted to act upstream of or within synaptonemal complex assembly. Located in central element. Is expressed in gonad; metanephros; and submandibular gland. Used to study primary ovarian insufficiency 12. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary ovarian insufficiency 12 and spermatogenic failure 15. Orthologous to human SYCE1 (synaptonemal complex central element protein 1).
