RIMBP3B
geneOn this page
Summary
RIMBP3B (RIMS binding protein 3B, HGNC:33891) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 22q11.21, encoding RIMS-binding protein 3B (A6NNM3). Probable component of the manchette, a microtubule-based structure which plays a key role in sperm head morphogenesis during late stages of sperm development.
Predicted to enable benzodiazepine receptor binding activity. Predicted to be involved in fertilization and spermatid development. Predicted to be located in manchette. Predicted to be active in nucleus.
