General annotation (Comments)

Function

Probably plays a regulatory role in sperm development. May participate in regulation of fibrous sheath (FS) assembly by supporting the formation of disulfide bonds during sperm tail morphogenesis. May also be required to rectify incorrect disulfide pairing and generate suitable pairs between the FS constituents. Can reduce disulfide bonds in vitro in the presence of NADP and thioredoxin reductase.

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. Note: In ejaculated spermatozoa, it localizes in the caudal region of the head to the end of the principal piece. Ref.1

Tissue specificity

Testis-specific. Only expressed during spermiogenesis, prominently in round and elongating spermatids. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Contains 1 thioredoxin domain.

Alternative products

This entry describes 2 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]
Isoform 1 (identifier: Q86VQ3-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: Q86VQ3-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     1-67: Missing.
