| Description | Transition nuclear proteins (TNPs), major proteins found in the chromatin of condensing spermatids, have been implicated in spermatogenesis and male fertility [ ]. This entry includes TNP3 and TNP4. Ram TNP3 and boar TP4 belong to the same group and probably play similar functions in chromatin remodelling during spermiogenesis []. TNP4 stimulates the DNA-relaxing activity of topoisomerase I []. This entry also includes human uncharacterized protein CXorf51. |
