Gene nameC2CD6
Protein nameCation channel sperm-associated targeting subunit tau (CatSper-tau) (Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis 2 chromosomal region candidate gene 11 protein) (C2 calcium-dependent domain-containing protein 6)
ALS2CR11 protein
SynonymsALS2CR11
CATSPERT
DescriptionFUNCTION: Auxiliary component of the CatSper complex, a complex involved in sperm cell hyperactivation. Sperm cell hyperactivation is needed for sperm motility which is essential late in the preparation of sperm for fertilization. Required for CatSper complex targeting and trafficking into the quadrilinear nanodomains. Targets the preassembled CatSper complexes to elongating flagella, where it links the channel-carrying vesicles and motor proteins. .
