CC -!- FUNCTION: AQN proteins mediate the binding of boar spermatozoa to
CC component(s) of the egg's zona pellucida by a carbohydrate-binding
CC mechanism. AQN proteins are secretory components of the male accessory
CC glands being coated to the sperm surface at the time of ejaculation.
CC They possess as well heparin-, serine-protease-inhibitor-binding
CC capability.
CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted.
CC -!- PTM: The residue at position 85 was identified as a methylhistidine by
CC mass spectrometry.
CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the spermadhesin family. {ECO:0000305}.
