CC -!- FUNCTION: RNA-binding protein that plays an essential role in
CC spermatogenesis. May act by binding to the 3'-UTR of mRNAs and
CC regulating their translation.
CC -!- SUBUNIT: Forms a heterodimer with BOLL and DAZL. Interacts with PUM2,
CC DAZAP1, DAZAP2, DZIP1 and DZIP3. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10857750,
CC ECO:0000269|PubMed:10903443, ECO:0000269|PubMed:11390979,

CC Q9NR90-2; O14656-2: TOR1A; NbExp=3; IntAct=EBI-25830216, EBI-25847109;
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11058556}. Nucleus
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11058556}. Note=Predominantly cytoplasmic. Nuclear
CC at some stages of spermatozoide development. Localizes both to the
CC nuclei and cytoplasm of spermatozoide differentiation. Nuclear in fetal
CC gonocytes and in spermatogonial nuclei. It then relocates to the
CC cytoplasm during male meiosis.
CC -!- ALTERNATIVE PRODUCTS:
CC Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2;
CC Name=1;
CC IsoId=Q9NR90-1; Sequence=Displayed;
CC Name=2;
CC IsoId=Q9NR90-2; Sequence=VSP_040218;
CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Testis specific. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10936047}.
CC -!- DOMAIN: The DAZ domains are essential and mediate the interaction with
CC DAZAP1 and DAZAP2.
CC -!- POLYMORPHISM: The number as well as the precise structure of the DAZ
CC proteins probably differs within the population.
CC {ECO:0000305|PubMed:12752250}.
CC -!- DISEASE: Spermatogenic failure Y-linked 2 (SPGFY2) [MIM:415000]: A
CC disorder resulting in the absence (azoospermia) or reduction
CC (oligozoospermia) of sperm in the semen, leading to male infertility.
CC {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11095434, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12801575}. Note=The
CC disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in
CC this entry. AZFc deletions in the Yq11.23 region including the DAZ
CC genes are the most common known genetic cause of human male
CC infertility.
CC -!- MISCELLANEOUS: The DAZ proteins (DAZ, DAZ2, DAZ4 and DAZ4) are all
CC encoded by a strongly repeated region of the Y chromosome, in two
CC clusters each comprising an inverted pair of DAZ genes. They are very
CC similar, which gives their indidual characterization difficult. Thus,
CC most experiments do not discriminate between the different members. One
CC can therefore suppose that reported interactions with a DAZ protein
CC involve all the 4 proteins.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the RRM DAZ family. {ECO:0000255|PROSITE-
CC ProRule:PRU01238, ECO:0000305}.
