Gene information for CATSPER1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID117144
Official gene symbolCATSPER1
Full namecation channel, sperm associated 1
Aliases,CATSPER,MGC33335,MGC33368,
Gene summaryCalcium ions play a primary role in the regulation of sperm motility. This gene belongs to a family of putative cation channels that are specific to spermatozoa and localize to the flagellum. The protein family features a single repeat with six membrane-spanning segments and a predicted calcium-selective pore region. [provided by RefSeq]
