TDRD1 tudor domain containing 1 [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 56165)

Symbol: TDRD1

Full name: tudor domain containing 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: REVIEWED

Also known as: CT41.1

Summary: This gene encodes a protein containing a tudor domain that is thought to function in the suppression of transposable elements during spermatogenesis. The related protein in mouse forms a complex with piRNAs and Piwi proteins to promote methylation and silencing of target sequences. This gene was observed to be upregulated by ETS transcription factor ERG in prostate tumors. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2018]

Expression: Biased expression in testis (RPKM 8.5) and prostate (RPKM 0.6)

Orthologs: mouse

Gene size: 57793bp

Exon count: 30
