Gene Information

human ... SPAG5(10615)

General description

This gene encodes a protein associated with the mitotic spindle apparatus. The encoded protein may be involved in the functional and dynamic regulation of mitotic spindles. (provided by RefSeq)

Immunogen

SPAG5 (AAH00322, 1082 a.a. ~ 1191 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

SPAG5 (Sperm associated antigen 5) plays a vital role in the mitosis and cell cycle regulation by controlling the formation and organization of microtubule, checkpoint regulation during cell division. It acts as a regulator and binds to the spindle during separation of sister chromatids. It is also involved in DNA damage repair. It has been suggested that overexpression of SPAG5 may indicate a pathogenic role in testicular development of patients with Down′s syndrome and cryptorchidism.

The error-free segregation of chromosomes, which requires the precisely timed search and capture of chromosomes by spindles during early mitotic and meiotic cell division, is responsible for genomic stability and is achieved by the spindle assembly checkpoint in the metaphase-anaphase

Men with Down's syndrome (DS) have an increased risk of cryptorchidism, but the mechanisms causing its onset are not clear. Cryptorchidism causes a primary testiculopathy responsible for infertility. SPAG5 mRNA is predominantly expressed in testis in pachytene spermatocytes. This observation

Proteins of the GW182 family play an important role in the execution of microRNA repression in metazoa. They interact directly with Argonaute proteins, components of microRNPs, and also form part of P-bodies, structures implicated in translational repression and mRNA degradation.
