| Function | Has a salt-sensitive antimicrobial activity against Gram-negative bacteria, including E.coli, Gram-positive, including S.aureus, and fungi, including C.albicans. Binds to and neutralizes bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS), abolishing TNF production by macrophages challenged with LPS. Rescues the LPS- induced reduction of sperm motility in vitro and may protect from LPS-induced lethality. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23482568}. |
| Subcellular Location | Secreted {ECO:0000250}. |
| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in epididymis, predominantly in the caput (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23482568}. |
