Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * The ACR gene is located on chromosome 19p13.1. * It is a large gene with a predicted protein of 1,613 amino acids. * The protein is expressed in high levels in the small intestine, colon, and brain. * It is a transmembrane protein that is localized to the cell surface. **Pathways and functions:** * The ACR protein is involved in the acrosome reaction, a process that is essential for sperm-oocyte fertilization. * It is also involved in the regulation of adenylate cyclase activity, which is a key enzyme in the process of cell signaling. * The ACR protein is also involved in the binding of sperm to the zona pellucida, the outer layer of the egg. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the ACR gene have been linked to a number of human diseases, including infertility, colorectal cancer, and cancer of the brain and other organs. * These diseases are caused by mutations in genes that are involved in the early stages of development, when the acrosome reaction is taking place. * Researchers are currently investigating the use of acrosin inhibitors as a treatment for human diseases.
