GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 620154
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Spa17
Name: sperm autoantigenic protein 17
Acc ID: GO:0035686
Term: sperm fibrous sheath
Definition: A cytoskeletal structure surrounding the axoneme and outer dense fibers of the sperm flagellum. Consists of two longitudinal columns connected by closely arrayed semicircular ribs that assemble from distal to proximal throughout spermiogenesis. The fibrous sheath probably influences the degree of flexibility, plane of flagellar motion, and the shape of the flagellar beat.
Definition Source(s): GOC:BHF, GOC:cilia, GOC:krc, PMID:20731842, PMID:3282552
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
