Gene information for ACRBP (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID84519
Official gene symbolACRBP
Full nameacrosin binding protein
Aliases,CT23,FLJ51160,OY-TES-1,SP32,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is similar to proacrosin binding protein sp32 precursor found in mouse, guinea pig, and pig. This protein is located in the sperm acrosome and is thought to function as a binding protein to proacrosin for packaging and condensation of the acrosin zymogen in the acrosomal matrix. This protein is a member of the cancer/testis family of antigens and it is found to be immunogenic. In normal tissues, this mRNA is expressed only in testis, whereas it is detected in a range of different tumor types such as bladder, breast, lung, liver, and colon. [provided by RefSeq]
