Identification, cloning and functional characterization of novel sperm associated antigen 11 (SPAG11) isoforms in the rat
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Sperm binding proteins and their C-terminal peptides of the Sperm Associated Antigen 11 (SPAG11) family were found to play an important role in epididymal innate immunity in addition to their role in sperm maturation. However, the ex...
