    Background
    DAZL (Deleted in Azoospermia-Like) is a highly conserved RNA-binding protein that belongs to the DAZ gene family and is essential for germ cell development and gametogenesis in both males and females. It contains two key domains: an RNA Recognition Motif (RRM), approximately 90 amino acids in length, which specifically binds GUU- and UGUU(U/A)-rich sequences in the 3′ untranslated regions (3′UTRs) of target mRNAs, and a DAZ repeat domain, about 24 amino acids long, enriched in asparagine, tyrosine, and glutamine residues. This repeat domain facilitates protein–protein interactions, particularly with other RNA-binding proteins and components of the translation machinery. Through these domains, DAZL forms ribonucleoprotein complexes involved in post-transcriptional regulation. It controls the translation of thousands of mRNAs that govern critical processes in germ cells, including proliferation, meiotic entry, chromatin remodeling, spindle assembly, and synaptonemal complex formation. Depending on the cellular context, DAZL can act as a translational activator or repressor. A major function of DAZL is to recruit poly(A)-binding proteins (PABPs) and translation initiation factors to promote translation of target mRNAs, even those with short poly(A) tails, ensuring timely protein synthesis necessary for germ cell survival, division, and differentiation. DAZL expression is tightly regulated by epigenetic and post-transcriptional mechanisms and shifts in localization from the nucleus in early spermatogonia to the cytoplasm during meiosis and later stages. Mutations or dysregulation of DAZL are associated with infertility and germ cell developmental abnormalities.
