- Description
- Predicted to enable ATP hydrolysis activity. Acts upstream of or within meiosis I and spermatogenesis. Predicted to be located in chromosome and nuclear lumen. Predicted to be part of MutLalpha complex. Is expressed in head and testis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Lynch syndrome (multiple); gastrointestinal system cancer (multiple); lung cancer; mismatch repair cancer syndrome; and sporadic breast cancer. Orthologous to human MLH1 (mutL homolog 1).
