Disease relevance of Crisp1

  • We have now isolated and characterized overlapping phage clones covering the entire length of the CRISP-1 gene [1].
  • Further studies will reveal to what extent the absence or the non-functionality of SCP1 contributes to male infertility [2].
  • NW-BR-2 is identical to the CT antigen SCP-1, initially isolated by SEREX analysis of renal cancer [3].
  • Identification of tumor-restricted antigens NY-BR-1, SCP-1, and a new cancer/testis-like antigen NW-BR-3 by serological screening of a testicular library with breast cancer serum [3].
 

High impact information on Crisp1

  • The protein shares homology with the mammalian cysteine-rich secretory protein (CRISP) family that includes testes-specific spermatocyte protein 1, a cell adhesion protein which links spermatocytes to Seritoli cells, and acidic epididymal glycoproteins that bind to sperm and have been implicated in sperm-egg fusion [4].
  • The cysteine-rich secretory protein domain of Tpx-1 is related to ion channel toxins and regulates ryanodine receptor Ca2+ signaling [5].
  • The first member of the cysteine-rich secretory protein (CRISP) family was described by our laboratory in the rat epididymis, and it is known as DE or CRISP-1 [6].
  • The interesting finding that the binding site of DE resides in an evolutionarily conserved region of the molecule provides novel information on the molecular mechanisms underlying CRISP-1 function in gamete fusion with important implications on the structure-function relationship of other members of the widely distributed CRISP family [6].
  • To test this possibility we used the yeast two-hybrid system and found that the N-terminal end of the SCP1 protein indeed strongly interacted with itself, but not with other protein domains tested [7].
