Target/Specificity | This SEMG1 antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 92-121 amino acids from the N-terminal region of human SEMG1. |
Dilution | WB~~1:1000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | SEMG1 Antibody (N-term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | SEMG1 |
---|---|
Synonyms | SEMG |
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. |
Cellular Location | Secreted. |
Tissue Location | Seminal vesicle. |

Background
The protein encoded by this gene is the predominant protein in semen. The encoded secreted protein is involved in the formation of a gel matrix that encases ejaculated spermatozoa. The prostate-specific antigen (PSA) protease processes this protein into smaller peptides, with each possibly having a separate function. The proteolysis process breaks down the gel matrix and allows the spermatozoa to move more freely.
