Abstract

This entry represents spermatogenesis-associated protein 20 (also known as sperm-specific protein 411 (Ssp411)), which is a testis-specific protein that contains a thioredoxin-like domain, and may play a role in fertility regulation [ 1 ]. Other family members include a number of uncharacterised proteins with thioredoxin domains.
