Anti-SPAG7 Antibody Picoband® 0,00647 Vervoeging

Sperm-associated antigen 7 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPAG7 gene. SPAG7 (sperm-associated antigen 7) is a 227 amino acid nuclear protein that contains one R3H domain and is expressed in fetal brain. The gene that encodes SPAG7 consists of approximately 8,612 bases and maps to human chromosome 17p13.2. Encoding more than 1,200 genes, chromosome 17 comprises over 2.5% of the human genome. 2 key tumor suppressor genes are associated with chromosome 17, namely, p53 and BRCA1. Tumor suppressor p53 is necessary for maintenance of cellular genetic integrity by moderating cell fate through DNA repair versus cell death. Malfunction or loss of p53 expression is associated with malignant cell growth and Li-Fraumeni syndrome. Like p53, BRCA1 is ly involved in DNA repair, though specifically it is recognized as a genetic determinant of early onset breast cancer and predisposition to cancers of ovary, colon, prostate gland and fallopian tubes.

Required for DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) formation in unsynapsed regions during meiotic recombination. Probably acts by forming a complex with MEI4 and REC114, which activates DSBs formation in unsynapsed regions, an essential step to ensure completion of synapsis. Not required for HORMAD1 functions in pairing-independent synaptonemal complex formation, ATR recruitment to unsynapsed axes, meiotic silencing of unsynapsed chromatin (MSUC) or meiotic surveillance.
