It is a protein composed of approximately 65 kDa. MEA1 is predominantly expressed in the testes indicating its involvement in male reproductive function. The protein has been identified to participate in cellular processes essential to germ cell development and its expression pattern suggests it may have functions that are testis-specific or testis-enhanced.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMEA1 interacts with cellular machinery involved in cell cycle regulation and differentiation. Its role has been observed in the development of male germ cells. MEA1 does not form part of a larger protein complex; instead it functions as an independent entity that supports spermatid differentiation. It seems essential for proper morphological changes necessary for mature sperm formation.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nStudies show that MEA1 is integral to pathways guiding spermatogenesis and germ cell maturation. It does not directly link to more widespread signaling routes like MAPK or PI3K. MEA1 may interact with proteins such as CREM a transcription factor that regulates genes critical for sperm cell development suggesting it integrates into the transcriptional regulatory framework essential for efficient sperm production.\u003cbr\u003e\nMEA1’s aberrant expression is associated with male infertility specifically non-obstructive azoospermia which is a condition requiring intervention for sperm production failures. Connections to infertility emphasize the protein's role in maintaining healthy sperm production. Another protein associated with male infertility is DAZL which MEA1 could potentially interact with given their shared involvement in spermatogenesis. Further research could elucidate MEA1’s exact interactions and pathogenic roles connected to reproductive issues.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46845183885481,"sku":"ab263250","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/es\/products\/abcam-ab263250","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
