Protein Structure
UniProt Annotation
Function 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 CATSPER1 stability before intraflagellar transport and/or incorporation of the CatSper complex channel into the flagellar membrane. {ECO:0000269PubMed:21224844}.
Subcellular Localization Cell projection, cilium, flagellum membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:21224844}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:21224844}. Note=Specifically located in the principal piece of sperm tail.
Disease Associations
Tissue Specificity Testis-specific. {ECO:0000269PubMed:21224844}.
