cyclin A1 expression is altered in cases of spermatogenic disorders. Moreover, the level of cyclin A1 mRNA expression correlates with gametogenic disorders and seems well suited for a molecular-diagnostic classification supplementing the histopathological evaluation of spermatogenic disorders.

Function
May be involved in the control of the cell cycle at theG1/S (start) and G2/M (mitosis) transitions. May primarilyfunction in the control of the germline meiotic cell cycle andadditionally in the control of mitotic cell cycle in some somaticcells.
