Cloning and characterization of a novel sperm tail protein, NYD-SP28.
In this study, a gene coding a novel human sperm tail protein named NYD-SP28 was cloned and characterized using a complementary DNA (cDNA) microarray. Its expression was 3.5 times higher in human testis than in fetal testis, and very high in human spermatozoa. The full length of NYD-SP28 cDNA was 1798 bp and encoded a 484-amino-acid protein. Motif analysis revealed that the protein contained a ...
متن کاملDecapacitation factor purification with lipid solvents.
In 1957, Chang reported the presence of a substance in the seminal plasma of several mammalian species which had the ability to reverse the capacitation process (decapacitation factor or DF). Bedford & Chang (1962) were partially able to purify DF by ultra-centrifugation. Since that time, a great deal of effort has been given to the purification, isolation and identification of this substance (...
متن کاملEffect of NYD-SP27 down-regulation on ATP-induced Ca2+-dependent pancreatic duct anion secretion in cystic fibrosis cells.
Our previous study demonstrated that NYD-SP27 is a novel inhibitory PLC isoform expressed endogenously in human pancreas and upregulated in CFPAC-1 cells. The present study investigated the effect of NYD-SP27 down-regulation on the ATP-stimulated and Ca(2+)-dependent pancreatic anion secretion by CFPAC-1 cell line using short-circuit current (I(SC)) recording. NYD-SP27 antisense-transfected CFP...
متن کاملIntrinsic factor in tropical sprue.
Criteria used to establish the diagnosis of tropical sprue were previously published.5 Twenty-one of the patients with sprue and four of the normal subjects were Puerto Rican. The patients with sprue ranged in age from 15 to 74 and the normal groups from 25 to 56. Treated patients were receiving folic acid orally, 5 mg. daily. Gastric juice was collected before and for 90 mm. after subcutaneous...
متن کاملSperm precedence in a novel context: mating in a sessile marine invertebrate with dispersing sperm.
The compound ascidian Diplosoma listerianum releases aquatic sperm which are dispersed passively to potential mates as individual gametes prior to storage of sperm, internal fertilization and brooding of embryos. The storage of exogenous sperm enables D. listerianum to produce a lengthy series of progeny following a brief period of mating. Molecular paternity analysis following sequential matin...
