An X-linked Gene Encodes a Major Human Sperm Fibrous Sheath Protein, hAKAP82
1 Nov 1998
Abstract excerpt
Mammalian sperm motility is regulated by a cascade of cAMP-dependent protein phosphorylation events mediated by protein kinase A. A-kinase anchor proteins (AKAPs) direct protein kinase A activity by tethering the enzyme near its physiological substrates. We have characterized a major human sperm fibrous sheath AKAP, hAKAP82, and its precursor, pro-hAKAP82, the homologues of the mouse fibrous sheath proteins...
