Nodes:
Network nodes represent proteins
splice isoforms or post-translational modifications are collapsed, i.e. each node represents all the proteins produced by a single, protein-coding gene locus.
Node Color
colored nodes:
query proteins and first shell of interactors
white nodes:
second shell of interactors
Node Content
empty nodes:
proteins of unknown 3D structure
filled nodes:
a 3D structure is known or predicted
Edges:
Edges represent protein-protein associations
associations are meant to be specific and meaningful, i.e. proteins jointly contribute to a shared function; this does not necessarily mean they are physically binding to each other.

SmcpSperm mitochondrial-associated cysteine-rich protein; 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. (143 aa)    
Predicted Functional Partners:
Odf1
Outer dense fiber protein 1; Component of the outer dense fibers (ODF) of spermatozoa. ODF are filamentous structures located on the outside of the axoneme in the midpiece and principal piece of the mammalian sperm tail and may help to maintain the passive elastic structures and elastic recoil of the sperm tail.

Cylc2
Cylicin, basic protein of sperm head cytoskeleton 2.
   
 0.540
Fscb
Fibrous sheath CABYR-binding protein; May be involved in the later stages of fibrous sheath biogenesis and spermatozoa capacitation. Inhibits ROPN1 and ROPN1L SUMOylation. Binds calcium.
   
 0.538
Oaz3
Ornithine decarboxylase antizyme 3; Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) antizyme protein that negatively regulates ODC activity and intracellular polyamine biosynthesis and uptake in response to increased intracellular polyamine levels. Binds to ODC monomers, inhibiting the assembly of the functional ODC homodimers. Does not target the ODC monomers for degradation, which allows a protein synthesis-independent restoration of ODC activity. Stabilizes AZIN2 by interfering with its ubiquitination. Involved in the translocation of AZNI2 from ER-Golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) to the cytoso [...]

Cypt4
Cysteine-rich perinuclear theca protein 4.
   
  
 0.504
Tnp2
Nuclear transition protein 2; Plays a key role in the replacement of histones to protamine in the elongating spermatids of mammals. In condensing spermatids, loaded onto the nucleosomes, where it promotes the recruitment and processing of protamines, which are responsible for histone eviction. The histone H2AB1-H2BC1/TH2B dimer is required for loading of TNP2 onto chromatin. Belongs to the nuclear transition protein 2 family.
   
 0.486
Prm2
Protamine-2; Protamines substitute for histones in the chromatin of sperm during the haploid phase of spermatogenesis. They compact sperm DNA into a highly condensed, stable and inactive complex.
   
  
 0.473
Spata21
Spermatogenesis-associated protein 21; Involved in the differentiation of haploid spermatids.
   
 
 0.461
Selenoh
Selenoprotein H; May be involved in a redox-related process.
    
 
 0.449
Tsga8
Testis-specific gene A8 protein.
   
  
 0.448
