We have read with a great interest the excellent article by Pasch et al. (2015) which describes the role of Sun4 in sperm head formation and fertility. The authors have used a Sun4 knockout (Sun4) mouse model to study the function of Sun4 in spermatogenesis. They observed that homozygous Sun4 males are infertile and present a globozoospermia-like phenotype. Further, they demonstrate that Sun4 i...
The trans-Golgi network (TGN) functions as a hub organelle in the exocytosis of clathrin-coated membrane vesicles, and SMAP2 is an Arf GTPase-activating protein that binds to both clathrin and the clathrin assembly protein (CALM). In the present study, SMAP2 is detected on the TGN in the pachytene spermatocyte to the round spermatid stages of spermatogenesis. Gene targeting reveals that SMAP2-d...
ICA1L forms BAR-domain complexes with PICK1 and is crucial for acrosome formation in spermiogenesis.
Mutations in the Pick1 gene cause globozoospermia, a male infertility disorder, in both mice and humans. PICK1 is crucial for vesicle trafficking, and its deficiency in sperm cells leads to abnormal vesicle trafficking from the Golgi to the acrosome. This eventually disrupts acrosome formation and leads to male infertility. Here, we identified ICA1L, which has sequence similarities to ICA69 (al...
ICA1L Forms BAR-domain Complexes with PICK1 and is Critical for Acrosome Formation in Spermiogenesis
Mutations of the Pick1 gene cause globozoospermia, a male infertility disorder in both mice and human. PICK1 is critical for vesicle trafficking and its deficiency in sperm cells leads to abnormal vesicle trafficking from the Golgi to acrosome. This eventually disrupts acrosome formation and leads to male infertility. We identified a novel BAR-domain binding partner of PICK1: ICA1L, which has s...
Protein interacting with C kinase 1 (PICK1) is a peripheral membrane protein involved in protein trafficking, a function that has been well characterized in neurons. Here, we report that male mice deficient in PICK1 are infertile and have a phenotype resembling the human disease globozoospermia. The primary defect in the testes of Pick1-knockout mice was fragmentation of acrosomes in the early ...
Globozoospermia is a severe form of teratozoospermia characterized by round-headed spermatozoa with an absent acrosome, an aberrant nuclear membrane and midpiece defects. Globozoospermia is diagnosed by the presence of 100% round-headed spermatozoa on semen analysis, and patients with this condition are absolutely infertile. The objective of this study was to investigate the differences in prot...
In an attempt to determine whether co-culture could promote sperm maturation, three patients with non-obstructive azoospermia, two with maturation arrest at the level of primary spermatocytes and one patient with <1% tubules showing complete spermatogenesis, and one patient with total globozoospermia, gave consent to experimentally co-culture round spermatids retrieved from the testicle on Vero...
