... Tex1 mRNA is detected in the spermatids in the seminiferous tubule and in some residual bodies, suggesting that it may play a critical role in spermatogenesis [16]. Unlike TGIF1 and TGIF2, this gene is not expressed in the brain, so it is unlikely to be involved in brain development [14]. X-linked g ...
