背景
-
SPA17 antibody recognizes Sperm autoantigenic protein 17, a testis-enriched protein encoded by the SPA17 gene that is involved in sperm motility, fertilization, and cell adhesion. SPA17 is expressed primarily in the acrosomal region of mature spermatozoa and in ciliated epithelial tissues, where it contributes to cell-cell interaction and immune recognition processes. The protein contains an N-terminal sperm-coating antigen domain and a C-terminal region homologous to the heat shock protein family, suggesting a chaperone-like role in maintaining sperm surface protein stability.
SPA17 was initially identified as an autoantigen in patients with infertility and autoimmune disorders, reflecting its immunogenic nature. It is also classified as a cancer-testis antigen due to its restricted normal expression in testicular tissue and aberrant expression in various malignancies, including ovarian, prostate, and lung cancers. This re-expression in tumors has made SPA17 a target of interest for cancer immunotherapy and tumor biomarker research. Functionally, SPA17 promotes sperm-egg interaction by binding to carbohydrate residues on the zona pellucida and may participate in intracellular signaling during acrosomal exocytosis.
The SPA17 gene is located on chromosome 11q24.2 and encodes a 151-amino acid protein that forms homodimers. The protein associates with the outer acrosomal membrane and flagellar structures, supporting motility and fertilization capacity. Beyond reproduction, SPA17 has been detected in immune and neural tissues, where it may modulate cAMP-mediated signaling pathways. Studies have shown SPA17 interaction with protein kinase A (PKA) regulatory subunits, linking it to cellular adhesion and signal transduction.
Immunohistochemical analysis using SPA17 antibody reveals strong staining in testis, epididymis, and certain tumor tissues. The antibody is widely used to investigate sperm biology, fertility disorders, and tumor immunogenicity. SPA17 antibody from NSJ Bioreagents provides a reliable reagent for studying reproductive protein function and cancer-testis antigen expression in diverse research applications -
