CLONING

Using coimmunoprecipitation experiments of mouse sperm protein lysates with an antibody to CABYR (612135), Li et al. (2007) identified a novel peptide, which they designated Fscb (fibrous sheath CABYR-binding protein). Antibodies were raised to a truncated version of the mouse protein, whose full-length version was predicted to be 1,074 amino acids. By database analysis, Li et al. (2007) identified human FSCB, which encodes a deduced 825-amino acid protein. Northern blot analysis of mouse tissues detected a 3.5-kb testis-specific Fscb transcript.

GENE FUNCTION

Li et al. (2007) showed that Fscb is first expressed in the elongating spermatids during spermatogenesis. Later in spermatogenesis it is found in the flagellum where it was shown to localize to a cortical layer at the surface of the ribs and longitudinal columns of the fibrous sheath. Li et al. (2007) postulated that FSCB may be involved in later stages of fibrous sheath assembly. Like CABYR, FSCB is a calcium-binding protein, and both recombinant and native FSCB are phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA; see 176911).

MAPPING

By sequence analysis, Li et al. (2007) mapped the FSCB gene to chromosome 14q21.3 and the mouse homolog to chromosome 12. ... More on the omim web site
