physiological function | inhibition of SMS2 activity decreases sperm motility and penetration ability into methylcellulose, but has no influence on capacitation and acrosome reaction, or on intracellular Ca2+ concentration compared to IgG-treated control groups. The phosphorylation level of Akt is decreased, whereas the phosphorylation of ERK and cleaved-caspase 3 levels are significantly increased by SGMS2 inhibition | Homo sapiens |
