- Gene Symbol:
- CYLC2
Homo sapiens - Full name:
- cylicin 2
- Synonyms:
- cylicin-2, cylicin II, cylicin, basic protein of sperm head cytoskeleton 2, multiple-band polypeptide II
- Genomic Location:
- Chr 9: 104797484-104820591
- Description:
-
Cylicin II (CYCL2) is specifically expressed in testis and is part of the cytoskeletal calyx of mammalian sperm heads. Cylicin II may play a role in the morphogenesis of the sperm head.
