Human t-Complex Protein 11 (TCP11), a Testis-Specific Gene Product, Is a Potential Determinant of the Sperm Morphology
1 Jan 2011
Abstract excerpt
Fertilization promoting peptid (FPP) is essential for capacitation and acrosome reaction. The mouse t-complex protein 11 (Tcp11) gene, which encodes the receptor of FPP, plays an important role in fertilization. We had identified three alternative splicing products of its human homologous gene, TCP11, nominated as TCP11a, TCP11b and TCP11c. Their testis-specific expression had been noted, suggesting that TCP11...
