| Type | Family |
| Description | This family consists of several variants of the human and chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) sperm antigen proteins (HE2 and EP2respectively). The EP2 gene codes for a family of androgen-dependent, epididymis-specific secretory proteins, known as sperm-associated antigen 11. The EP2 gene uses alternative promoters and differential splicing to produce afamily of variant messages. The translated putative protein variants differ significantly from each other. Some of these putative proteins have similarity to beta-defensins, a family of antimicrobialpeptides [ ]. |
