Abstract: Mammalian sperm carry a variety of highly condensed insoluble protein structures such as the perinuclear theca, the fibrous sheath and the outer dense fibers, which are essential to sperm function. We studied the role of… read more here.

Abstract: Precise shaping of the sperm head is essential for successful fertilization, and defects in this process are frequently associated with severe forms of male infertility. Sperm head morphology is coordinated by several testis-specific structures, including… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2022.836208
Abstract: The perinuclear theca (PT) is a highly condensed, largely insoluble protein structure that surrounds the nucleus of eutherian spermatozoa. Recent reports have indicated that the PT unexpectedly houses several somatic proteins, such as core histones,… read more here.
