NANOS1

protein-coding

nanos C2HC-type zinc finger 1, the group of Zinc fingers C2HC-type

Gene summary

This gene encodes a CCHC-type zinc finger protein that is a member of the nanos family. This protein co-localizes with the RNA-binding protein pumilio RNA-binding family member 2 and may be involved in regulating translation as a post-transcriptional repressor. Mutations in this gene are associated with spermatogenic impairment. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_199461.4. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: May act as a translational repressor which regulates translation of specific mRNAs by forming a complex with PUM2 that associates with the 3'-UTR of mRNA targets. Capable of interfering with the proadhesive and anti-invasive functions of E-cadherin. Up-regulates the production of MMP14 to promote tumor cell invasion. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17047063, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18223680}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Spermatogenic failure 12 (SPGF12) [MIM:615413]: An infertility disorder caused by spermatogenesis defects. It results in decreased sperm motility, concentration, and multiple sperm structural defects. Non-obstructive azoospermia, oligozoospermia and oligo-astheno-teratozoospermia are features observed in SPGF12 patients. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23315541}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
