Summary: This gene encodes a member of the family of serine protease inhibitors of the Kazal type (SPINK). The encoded protein acts as a trypsin and acrosin inhibitor in the genital tract and is localized in the spermatozoa. The protein has been associated with the progression of lymphomas. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2012]

Title: SPINK2 Protein Expression Is an Independent Adverse Prognostic Marker in AML and Is Potentially Implicated in the Regulation of Ferroptosis and Immune Response.
Investigated whether tazarotene-induced gene 1 protein (TIG1) affects the activity of urokinase plasminogen-type activator, which is negatively regulated by serine peptidase inhibitor Kazal type 2 (SPINK2), potentially preventing epithelial mesenchymal transition and suppressing cell migration and invasion.
Title: Tazarotene-Induced Gene 1 (TIG1) Interacts with Serine Protease Inhibitor Kazal-Type 2 (SPINK2) to Inhibit Cellular Invasion of Testicular Carcinoma Cells.
These results demonstrate that SPINK2 is necessary to neutralize proteases during their cellular transit toward the acrosome and that its deficiency induces a pathological continuum ranging from oligoasthenoteratozoospermia in heterozygotes to azoospermia in homozygotes.
Title: SPINK2 deficiency causes infertility by inducing sperm defects in heterozygotes and azoospermia in homozygotes.
Data showed that the expression level of SPINK2 is significantly elevated in most leukemia cell lines except B-lymphoblast TK-6 cells. Data demonstrated that Arg(24) at the P1 site is crucial for the specificity of SPINK2 on target enzyme.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
