Also known as Tenr

Summary

ADAD1 (adenosine deaminase domain containing 1, HGNC:30713) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4q27, encoding Adenosine deaminase domain-containing protein 1 (Q96M93). Required for male fertility and normal male germ cell differentiation.

Predicted to enable double-stranded RNA adenosine deaminase activity; double-stranded RNA binding activity; and tRNA-specific adenosine deaminase activity. Predicted to be involved in RNA processing and adenosine to inosine editing. Predicted to act upstream of or within spermatid development. Predicted to be located in male germ cell nucleus. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and nucleolus.
