Function |
Testis-specific serine/threonine-protein kinase required during spermatid development. Phosphorylates 'Ser-288' of TSKS. Involved in the late stages of spermatogenesis, during the reconstruction of the cytoplasm. During spermatogenesis, required for the transformation of a ring-shaped structure around the base of the flagellum originating from the chromatoid body. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15733851, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19530700}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cytoplasm {ECO:0000250}. Cytoplasmic vesicle, secretory vesicle, acrosome {ECO:0000250}. Cell projection, cilium, flagellum {ECO:0000250}. Note=In spermatozoa, present in the sperm head and in the flagellum. {ECO:0000250}.
|
Tissue Specificity |
Testis-specific. Present in sperm (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15044604, ECO:0000269|PubMed:20729278}.
