Cation channel sperm-associated protein 2, CatSper2, CATSPER2
Product description
Calcium ions play a primary role in the regulation of
sperm motility. This gene belongs to a family of putative cation
channels that are specific to spermatozoa and localize to the
flagellum. The protein family features a single repeat with six
membrane-spanning segments and a predicted calcium-selective pore
region. This gene is part of a tandem repeat on chromosome 15q15;
the second copy of this gene is thought to be a pseudogene.
Additional splice variants have been described but their
full-length nature has not been determined.1) Rose, J.E., et al. Mol. Med. 16 (7-8), 247-253 (2010) :
