Mouse Cysteine-Rich Secretory Protein 4 (CRISP4): A Member of the Crisp Family Exclusively Expressed in the Epididymis in an Androgen-Dependent Manner1
26 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
The final maturation of spermatozoa produced in the testis takes place during their passage through the epididymis. In this process, the proteins secreted into the epididymal lumen along with changes in the pH and salt composition of the epididymal fluid cause several biochemical changes and remodeling of the sperm plasma membrane. The Crisp family is a group of cysteine-rich secretory proteins that previously...
