NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Uniprot Description
SPACA3: a single-pass type II sperm surface membrane protein that may be involved in sperm-egg plasma membrane adhesion and fusion during fertilization. It could be a potential receptor for the egg oligosaccharide residue N-acetylglucosamine, which is present in the extracellular matrix over the egg plasma membrane. A member of the Cancer-Testis Antigen (CTA) superfamily. CTAs may play roles in embryonal development and tumor transformation or aspects of tumor progression. CTAs were once thought to be silenced in most normal adult tissues, with limited expression in fetal, placental, testis, and ovarian cells. These proteins are now known to be aberrantly expressed in various cancers and many are capable of eliciting humoral and cellular immune responses. Expressed in testis, epididymis and placenta. Although it belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 22 family, T122 and N139 are present instead of the conserved Glu and Asp which are active site residues. It is therefore expected that this protein lacks hydrolase activity. Two isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human SP17A spaca3 (Catalog #AAA016854) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA016854 ELISA Kit recognizes Human SP17A. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Sperm Protein 17 Antibodies, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
