Acrosin Binding Protein Definition

Encoded by human ACRBP Gene, 540-amino acid 61 kD Acrosin Binding Protein (CT Family) is similar to proacrosin binding protein sp32 precursor found in pig, mouse, and guinea pig. Expressed in normal testis only, but detected in a range of tumor types such as bladder, breast, lung, liver, and colon, this immunogenic protein is located in the sperm acrosome and may package and condense proacrosin in the acrosomal matrix. (from SWISS-PROT, LocusLink, and NCI)
