About Spaca3

Summary

Predicted to enable lysozyme activity. Involved in fusion of sperm to egg plasma membrane involved in single fertilization. Acts upstream of or within sperm-egg recognition. Located in acrosomal vesicle. Orthologous to human SPACA3 (sperm acrosome associated 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
