CATH Superfamily 1.10.287.70
The name of this superfamily has been modified since the most recent official CATH+ release (v4_3_0). At the point of the last release, this superfamily was: waiting to be named.
FunFam 177: Cation channel sperm associated 4
Please note: GO annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.
There are 2 GO terms relating to "molecular function"
The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the

Voltage-gated calcium channel activity GO:0005245
Enables the transmembrane transfer of a calcium ion by a voltage-gated channel. A voltage-gated channel is a channel whose open state is dependent on the voltage across the membrane in which it is embedded.

1 | Q8BVN3 (/IMP) |
|
Protein binding GO:0005515
Interacting selectively and non-covalently with any protein or protein complex (a complex of two or more proteins that may include other nonprotein molecules).
|
1 | Q8BVN3 (/IPI) |
There are 5 GO terms relating to "biological process"

|
Sodium ion transport GO:0006814
The directed movement of sodium ions (Na+) into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.
|
1 | Q8BVN3 (/IMP) |
|
Flagellated sperm motility GO:0030317
Any process involved in the controlled movement of a flagellated sperm cell.
|
1 | Q8BVN3 (/IMP) |
|
Response to progesterone GO:0032570
Any process that results in a change in state or activity of a cell or an organism (in terms of movement, secretion, enzyme production, gene expression, etc.) as a result of a progesterone stimulus.
|
1 | Q7RTX7 (/TAS) |
|
Sperm-egg recognition GO:0035036
The initial contact step made between the sperm plasma membrane and outer layer of the egg during fertilization.
|
1 | Q7RTX7 (/TAS) |
|
Sperm capacitation GO:0048240
A process required for sperm to reach fertilization competence. Sperm undergo an incompletely understood series of morphological and molecular maturational processes, termed capacitation, involving, among other processes, protein tyrosine phosphorylation and increased intracellular calcium.

1 | Q8BVN3 (/IMP) |
There are 5 GO terms relating to "cellular component"

|
Acrosomal vesicle GO:0001669
A structure in the head of a spermatozoon that contains acid hydrolases, and is concerned with the breakdown of the outer membrane of the ovum during fertilization. It lies just beneath the plasma membrane and is derived from the lysosome.
|
1 | Q8BVN3 (/IDA) |
|
Plasma membrane GO:0005886
The membrane surrounding a cell that separates the cell from its external environment. It consists of a phospholipid bilayer and associated proteins.
|
1 | Q7RTX7 (/TAS) |
|
CatSper complex GO:0036128
A sperm-specific voltage-gated calcium channel that controls the intracellular calcium ion concentration and, thereby, the swimming behavior of sperm. Consists of a heteromeric tetramer surrounding a calcium ion- selective pore. May also contain additional auxiliary subunits.

CatSper complex GO:0036128
A sperm-specific voltage-gated calcium channel that controls the intracellular calcium ion concentration and, thereby, the swimming behavior of sperm. Consists of a heteromeric tetramer surrounding a calcium ion- selective pore. May also contain additional auxiliary subunits.

1 | Q7RTX7 (/ISS) |
|
Sperm principal piece GO:0097228
The segment of the sperm flagellum where the mitochondrial sheath ends, and the outer dense fibers (ODFs) associated with outer axonemal doublets 3 and 8 are replaced by the 2 longitudinal columns of the fibrous sheath (FS) which run the length of the principal piece and are stabilized by circumferential ribs. The principal piece makes up ~2/3 of the length of the sperm flagellum and is defined by the presence of the FS and of only 7 (rather than 9) ODFs which taper and then terminate near the distal end of the principal piece.
