Abstract excerpt
AKAP3 is a member of the A-kinase anchoring proteins and it is a constituent of the sperm fibrous sheath. AKAP3 is needed for the formation of sperm flagellum structure, sperm motility, and male fertility. This study aims to model the AKAP3 tertiary structure and identify the probable impact of four mutations characterized in infertile men on the AKAP3 structure. The T464S, I500T, E525K, and I661T substitutions...
