Function
Predominant protein in semen. It participates in the formation of a gel matrix entrapping the accessory gland secretions and ejaculated spermatozoa. Fragments of semenogelin and/or fragments of the related proteins may contribute to the activation of progressive sperm movements as the gel-forming proteins are fragmented by KLK3/PSA.
Alpha-inhibin-92 and alpha-inhibin-31, derived from the proteolytic degradation of semenogelin, inhibit the secretion of pituitary follicle-stimulating hormone. -
Tissue specificity
Seminal vesicle. -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the semenogelin family. -
Post-translational
modificationsTransglutaminase substrate.
Rapidly cleaved after ejaculation by KLK3/PSA, resulting in liquefaction of the semen coagulum and the progressive release of motile spermatozoa. -
Cellular localization
Secreted. - Information by UniProt
