Function |
As a member of the subcortical maternal complex (SCMC), plays an essential role for zygotes to progress beyond the first embryonic cell divisions. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Mitochondrion {ECO:0000250}. Nucleus, nucleolus {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Note=In the subcortical cytoplasm of early embryos from the 1-cell to the blastocyst stages. From the 2-cell stage, still detected in the subcortex, but excluded from cell-cell contact regions (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Tissue Specificity |
Oocyte-specific.
