Summary
Predicted to enable adenylate cyclase activity. Involved in oocyte growth. Acts upstream of or within with a positive effect on oocyte maturation. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be active in plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autosomal recessive nonsyndromic deafness 44 and lethal congenital contracture syndrome. Orthologous to several human genes including ADCY6 (adenylate cyclase 6). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
