function:Essential for spermatogenesis. May be required specifically for ribosome biogenesis and hence protein synthesis during male meiosis.,miscellaneous:Encoded by an autosomal retrotransposed copy of the X-linked gene UTP14A. Evolution of autosomal retrogenes from X-linked progenitors compensates for X-chromosome silencing during male meiosis.,similarity:Belongs to the glycosyltransferase 1 family.,similarity:Belongs to the UTP14 family.,tissue specificity:Expressed in testis.,
Nucleus, nucleolus .
Expressed in testis.
