SP-10 gene

Patent Pending Acrosomal protein SP-10 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ACRV1 gene.[1][2][3] This gene encodes a testis-specific, differentiation antigen, acrosomal vesicle protein 1, that arises within the acrosomal vesicle during spermatogenesis, and is associated with the acrosomal membranes and matrix of mature sperm. This gene consists of 4 exons and its alternative splicing generates multiple distinct transcripts, which encode protein isoforms ranging from 81 to 265 amino acids.
