This gene encodes a protein that functions in postnatal
oocyte-specific gene expression. The protein is a basic
helix-loop-helix transcription factor that regulates multiple
oocyte-specific genes, including genes involved in folliculogenesis
and those that encode the zona pellucida. Mutations in this gene
cause premature ovarian failure type 6.1) van Dooren, M.F., et al. Curr. Opin. Obstet. Gynecol. 21(4):313-317(2009)
