Supplementary information

SPEF1 also known as Sperm Flagellar Protein 1 functions in the motility of cilia and flagella. The protein has a mass of approximately 38 kDa. Researchers have observed its expression mainly in tissues with motile cilia such as the respiratory tract and reproductive system. It is essential for proper ciliary movement contributing to the physical structure and movement capability of cilia and flagella.
Biological function summary

As part of motility mechanisms SPEF1 plays a role in the assembly and stabilization of the axoneme the core structure of cilia and flagella. This protein is an axonemal protein that interacts with microtubules facilitating the sliding of microtubule doublets necessary for ciliary beating. SPEF1 does not act alone; it works within a multi-protein complex that includes other ciliary proteins to ensure effective ciliary and flagellar function.

Pathways

SPEF1 participates in pathways involved in respiratory cilia function and sperm motility. Within these pathways its role is connected to proteins such as dynein and kinesin which are also involved in microtubule-based movements. These pathways are essential for proper respiratory function and fertility due to their involvement in the movement and fluid clearance by cilia as well as sperm motility.

SPEF1 dysregulation links to primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) and some infertility cases. PCD results from mutated components of the axoneme impacting SPEF1 along with other proteins like DNAI1. These conditions illustrate the importance of functional ciliary and flagellar proteins for respiratory health and reproduction. Understanding the exact role of SPEF1 in these disorders helps in the development of targeted therapies and diagnostic tools.

Target data

Microtubule-associated protein involved in the stabilization of microtubules along the axis of migration during radial intercalation. Promotes the establishment and stabilization of an axis of microtubules required for the active migration of cells into the outer epithelium (By similarity). Microtubule-associated protein that promotes microtubule bundling and stabilizes microtubules against depolymerization in response to cold shock (By similarity). Essential for ciliary central apparatus formation which requires both its microtubule-binding and bundling activities and for ciliary localization of HYDIN and SPAG6 in ependymal cilia (By similarity). Binds actin in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs), essential for IECs survival and contributes to formation of filopodia and lamellipodia in migrating IECs (PubMed : 31473225). Regulates planar cell polarity signaling pathway and asymmetric microtubule accumulation in ciliated epithelia (By similarity).
