Recombinant Human ODF2

• Cat.No.: ODF2-27389TH
• Product Overview: Recombinant fragment of Human Cenexin1/ODF2 Isoform 3 with a N terminal proprietary tag: predicted molecular weight 36.52 kDa inclusive of tag.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Wheat Germ
• Tag: Non
• Protein Length: 99 amino acids
• Description: The outer dense fibers are cytoskeletal structures that surround the axoneme in the middle piece and principal piece of the sperm tail. The fibers function in maintaining the elastic structure and recoil of the sperm tail as well as in protecting the tail from shear forces during epididymal transport and ejaculation. Defects in the outer dense fibers lead to abnormal sperm morphology and infertility. This gene encodes one of the major outer dense fiber proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The longer transcripts, also known as Cenexins, encode proteins with a C-terminal extension that are differentially targeted to somatic centrioles and thought to be crucial for the formation of microtubule organizing centers.
• Molecular Weight: 36.520kDa inclusive of tags
• Tissue specificity: Testis-specific (at protein level). Highly expressed in cytoplasm of step 2 round spermatids. Detected in the middle piece and extends to about half the principal piece of the sperm tails.
