Analysis of Recombinant Human Semenogelin as an Inhibitor of Human Sperm Motility1

4 Nov 2009

Abstract excerpt

Eppin (epididymal protease inhibitor [SPINLW1]) is present in a protein complex on the human sperm surface that contains lactotransferrin, clusterin, and semenogelin (SEMG1). During ejaculation the presence of semenogelin inhibits sperm progressive motility until semenogelin is hydrolyzed by prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Although eppin binds all three components in its protein complex, the binding of...
