NCIt definition : Human SPANXA1 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of Xq27.1 and is approximately
1 kb in length. This allele, which encodes sperm protein associated with the nucleus
on the X chromosome A protein, plays a role in spermatogenesis.;
NCIt note : The genes for SPANXA1 and SPANXA2 are found in a head-to-head orientation on the X
chromosome. (EntrezGene);
