Syce3 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Involved in reciprocal meiotic recombination; spermatogenesis; and synaptonemal complex assembly. Acts upstream of or within positive regulation of apoptotic process; positive regulation of developmental process; and positive regulation of reproductive process. Located in central element. Is expressed in embryo; ovary; and testis. Orthologous to human SYCE3 (synaptonemal complex central element protein 3). [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 Syce3 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
