Gene nameSMCP
Protein nameSperm mitochondrial-associated cysteine-rich protein
Sperm mitochondria-associated cysteine-rich protein (Testicular tissue protein Li 119) (Testicular tissue protein Li 161) (cDNA, FLJ92296, Homo sapiens mitochondrial capsule selenoprotein (MCSP), nucleargene encoding mitochondrial protein, mRNA)
SynonymsMCS
hCG_1744473
MCSP
DescriptionFUNCTION: Involved in sperm motility. Its absence is associated with genetic background dependent male infertility. Infertility may be due to reduced sperm motility in the female reproductive tract and inability to penetrate the oocyte zona pellucida (By similarity). .
