Expression of a testis-specific putative actin-capping protein associated with the developing acrosome during rat spermiogenesis
1 Jan 1998
Abstract excerpt
Actin-capping proteins are ubiquitous components of mammalian cells. They are known to regulate the polymerization state of actin and hence indirectly control the activity of the cytoskeleton and cell shape. As part of our investigation into the molecular mechanisms that direct differentiation of a round spermatid into an elongating spermatozoa, we report on a testis-specific 1.7-kb transcript from rat testis...
