Facilitates sperm transport in the female reproductive tract and contributes to sperm protection against immunodetection; both functions are probably implicating the negative surface charge provided by its O-linked oligosaccharides in the sperm glycocalyx. Involved in binding of sperm to oviductal epithelial cells to form a sperm reservoir until ovulation. Release from the sperm surface during capacitation and ovaluation by an elevation of oviductal fluid pH is unmasking other surface components and allows sperm to penetrate the cumulus matrix and bind to the zona pellucida of the oocyte (By similarity). In vitro has antimicrobial activity and may inhibit LPS-mediated inflammation (PubMed:19373462, PubMed:23229569). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9BEE3, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19373462, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23229569}. <button type='default' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> No Pfam Domain information is available for this gene. </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |antimicrobial humoral immune response mediated by antimicrobial peptide| |defense response to Gram-negative bacterium| |antimicrobial humoral response| |single fertilization| |fertilization| |defense response to bacterium| |humoral immune response| |response to bacterium| |innate immune response| |sexual reproduction| |defense response to other organism| |multi-organism reproductive process| |response to other organism| |response to external biotic stimulus| |response to biotic stimulus| |defense response| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |immune response| |extracellular region| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp293|Myriocin 25μM R06 exp293]]|-2.43| |[[:results:exp159|Docetaxel 0.001 to 0.002μM on day4 R04 exp159]]|-2.04| |[[:results:exp229|Dimethyloxaloylglycine 100μM R05 exp229]]|-1.95| |[[:results:exp460|BML-284 0.09μM R08 exp460]]|-1.86| |[[:results:exp149|SB203580 25μM R03 exp149]]|-1.74| |[[:results:exp153|SGC2096 2.6μM R03 exp153]]|-1.7| |[[:results:exp392|PT-1 25μM R07 exp392]]|1.73| |[[:results:exp525|Sulforaphane 9μM R08 exp525]]|1.76| |[[:results:exp515|PU-H71 1μM R08 exp515]]|1.79| |[[:results:exp487|Hinokiflavone 12μM R08 exp487]]|1.84| |[[:results:exp469|CFI-400945 25μM R08 exp469]]|1.94| |[[:results:exp78|Pterostilbene 16μM R02 exp78]]|2.02| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 18620 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: -7.68 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='DEFB126 Expression in NALM6 Cells: -7.68'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2026/01/07 22:36by 127.0.0.1
