Expression and localization of five members of the testis-specific serine kinase (Tssk) family in mouse and human sperm and testis

20 Aug 2010

Abstract excerpt

Members of the testis-specific serine/threonine kinases (Tssk) family may have a role in sperm differentiation in the testis and/or fertilization. To gain insight into the functional relevance of these kinases, their expression was examined both at the mRNA and protein levels. Quantitative PCR analysis confirmed that all five Tssk mRNAs are almost exclusively expressed postmeiotically in the testis. Recombinant...
