What's a GeneRIF?

Epididymal proteins Binder of SPerm Homologs 1 and 2 (BSPH1/2) are dispensable for male fertility and sperm motility in mice.
Title: Epididymal proteins Binder of SPerm Homologs 1 and 2 (BSPH1/2) are dispensable for male fertility and sperm motility in mice.
These results show the existence of redundant function for murine BSPH2 and the lack of BSPH2 itself does not lead to sterility.
Title: CRISPR-Cas9-mediated mutation revealed BSPH2 protein is dispensable for male fertility.
This study could lead to a better understanding of the role of BSP proteins in sperm functions and the existence of redundant BSP proteins in the reproductive tract.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
