Abstract excerpt
Rat spermatidal protein TP2 is rich in serine residues and has several potential sites for phosphorylation by different protein kinases. Recombinant TP2 is phosphorylated upon incubation in vitro with salt extract of testicular sonication resistant nuclei (SRN) (representing elongating and elongated spermatids). The major phosphorylation sites were localized to the C-terminal, V8 protease-derived, fragment...
