Anti-SPAG8

Rabbit Polyclonal SPAG8 Antibody against Human sperm associated antigen 8. Validated for Western Blot. Buffer: 40% glycerol and PBS (pH 7.2). 0.02% sodium azide is added as preservative. Interspecies information: Highest antigen sequence indentity to the following orthologs: ENSMUSG00000066196: 66%, ENSRNOG00000032539: 66%. Protein function: Plays a role in spermatogenesis by enhancing the binding of CREM isoform tau to its coactivator FHL5 and increasing the FHL5- regulated transcriptional activation of CREM isoform tau. Involved in the acrosome reaction and in binding of sperm to the zona pellucida. Plays a role in regulation of the cell cycle by controlling progression through the G2/M phase, possibly by delaying the activation of CDK1 which is required for entry into mitosis (PubMed:19548270). May play a role in fertility and microtubule formation through interaction with RANBP9 (PubMed:10500252). [The UniProt Consortium]
