Function

Acrosin-binding protein, mature form

Acrosomal protein that maintains proacrosin (pro-ACR) as an enzymatically inactive zymogen in the acrosome. Involved also in the acrosome formation.

Post-translational modifications

Phosphorylated on Tyr residues in capacitated sperm.

The N-terminus is blocked.

Synthesized as a 60-kDa precursor, the 32-kDa mature form is post-translationally produced by the removal of the N-terminal half of the precursor during sperm maturation in the testis and/or epididymis.

Tissue specificity

Expression restricted to testis in normal tissue. Expressed in a wide spectrum of cancers, including bladder, breast, liver, lung and colon cancers.

Cellular localization

  • Secreted
  • Cytoplasmic vesicle
  • Secretory vesicle
  • Acrosome
