Tdrd9 Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables ATP hydrolysis activity. Involved in several processes, including male meiosis I; regulatory ncRNA-mediated gene silencing; and spermatogenesis. Acts upstream of or within transposable element silencing. Located in nucleus and piP-body. Is expressed in germ cell of testis and primary oocyte. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in spermatogenic failure 30. Orthologous to human TDRD9 (tudor domain containing 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Tdrd9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
