The protein encoded by this gene is the predominant
protein in semen. The encoded secreted protein is involved in the
formation of a gel matrix that encases ejaculated spermatozoa. The
prostate-specific antigen (PSA) protease processes this protein
into smaller peptides, with each possibly having a separate
function. The proteolysis process breaks down the gel matrix and
allows the spermatozoa to move more freely.1) Mitra, A., et al. Biol. Reprod. 82(3):489-496(2010)
