Spef is a region of sperm flagellar proteins. It probably exerts a role in spermatogenesis in that the protein is expressed predominantly in adult tissue. It is present in the tails of developing and epididymal sperm internal to the fibrous sheath and around the dense outer fibres of the sperm flagellum [1]. The amino-terminal domain (residues 1-110) shows a possible calponin homology (CH) domain; however Spef does not bind actin directly under in vitro conditions, so the function of the amino-terminal calponin-like domain is unclear [1]. Transcription aberrations leading to a truncated protein result in immotile sperm [2].
This family includes the tubulin alpha, beta and gamma chains, as well as the bacterial FtsZ family of proteins. Members of this family are involved in polymer formation. FtsZ is the polymer-forming protein of bacterial cell division. It is part of a ...
This family includes the tubulin alpha, beta and gamma chains, as well as the bacterial FtsZ family of proteins. Members of this family are involved in polymer formation. FtsZ is the polymer-forming protein of bacterial cell division. It is part of a ring in the middle of the dividing cell that is required for constriction of cell membrane and cell envelope to yield two daughter cells. FtsZ and tubulin are GTPases. FtsZ can polymerise into tubes, sheets, and rings in vitro and is ubiquitous in eubacteria and archaea. Tubulin is the major component of microtubules.
