Protein: Sperm mitochondrial-associated cysteine-rich protein (P49901)
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)
Function: Involved in sperm motility. Its absence is associated with genetic background dependent male infertility. Infertility may be due to reduced sperm motility in the female reproductive tract and inability to penetrate the oocyte zona pellucida (By similarity).
Subcellular location: Cytoplasm. Mitochondrion membrane {ECO:0000305}; Peripheral membrane protein {ECO:0000305}; Cytoplasmic side {ECO:0000305}. Note=Becomes associated with the spermatid mitochondrion capsule at step 16 of spermatogenesis. {ECO:0000250}.
