Abstract | dc.description.abstract | Marlin-1 is a GABAB receptor and Jak tyrosine kinase-binding protein that also associates with RNA and
microtubules. In humans and rodents, expression of Marlin-1 is predominantly restricted to the brain, but expression in
lymphoid cells has also been reported. Here, we have studied the distribution of Marlin-1 in testis and spermatozoa. Our
results indicate that Marlin-1 is highly expressed in testis. The protein is abundant in spermatogonia, spermatocytes,
spermatozoa, and Sertoli cells.Wealso have studied the subcellular distribution in spermatozoa. Marlin-1 is present in the
tail and to a lesser degree in the head of the sperm cell. Finally, we have explored two protein interactions. Our findings
demonstrate that Marlin-1 associates with a microtubule fraction and withGABAB receptors in testis suggesting that the set
of protein interactions of Marlin-1 are conserved in different tissues. | en_US |
