NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene is a member of the DAZ gene family and is a candidate for the human Y-chromosomal azoospermia factor (AZF). Its expression is restricted to premeiotic germ cells, particularly in spermatogonia. It encodes an RNA-binding protein that is important for spermatogenesis. Four copies of this gene are found on chromosome Y within palindromic duplications; one pair of genes is part of the P2 palindrome and the second pair is part of the P1 palindrome. Each gene contains a 2.4 kb repeat including a 72-bp exon, called the DAZ repeat; the number of DAZ repeats is variable and there are several variations in the sequence of the DAZ repeat. Each copy of the gene also contains a 10.8 kb region that may be amplified; this region includes five exons that encode an RNA recognition motif (RRM) domain. This gene contains two copies of the 10.8 kb repeat. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2011]
Uniprot Description
Function: RNA-binding protein that plays an essential role in spermatogenesis. May act by binding to the 3'-UTR of mRNAs and regulating their translation.
Subunit structure: Forms a heterodimer with BOLL and DAZL. Interacts with PUM2, DAZAP1, DAZAP2, DZIP1 and DZIP3. Ref.4 Ref.6 Ref.7 Ref.8
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note: Predominantly cytoplasmic. Nuclear at some stages of spermatozoide development. Localizes both to the nuclei and cytoplasm of spermatozoide differentiation. Nuclear in fetal gonocytes and in spermatogonial nuclei. It then relocates to the cytoplasm during male meiosis. Ref.5
Tissue specificity: Testis-specific. Expression restricted to premeiotic germ cells, particularly in spermatogonia (at protein level). Ref.1 Ref.13 Ref.14
Domain: The DAZ-like repeats are essential and mediate the interaction with DAZAP1 and DAZAP2.
Polymorphism: The number as well as the precise structure of the DAZ proteins probably differs within the population.
Involvement in disease: Spermatogenic failure Y-linked 2 (SPGFY2) [MIM:415000]: A disorder resulting in the absence (azoospermia) or reduction (oligozoospermia) of sperm in the semen, leading to male infertility.Note: The disease may be caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. AZFc deletions in the Yq11.23 region including the DAZ genes are the most common known genetic cause of human male infertility. Ref.10 Ref.11
Miscellaneous: DAZ genes are prone to deletions but also to duplications. In a population of infertile men, DAZ genes deletions are associated with oligozoospermia but an increased number of DAZ genes is not a significant risk factor for spermatogenic failure.The DAZ proteins (DAZ, DAZ2, DAZ4 and DAZ4) are all encoded by a strongly repeated region of the Y chromosome, in two clusters each comprising an inverted pair of DAZ genes. They are very similar, which gives their indidual characterization difficult. Thus, most experiments do not discriminate between the different members. One can therefore suppose that reported interactions with a DAZ protein involve all the 4 proteins.
Sequence similarities: Belongs to the RRM DAZ family.Contains 9 DAZ-like domains.Contains 2 RRM (RNA recognition motif) domains.
