Protein A participates in fertilization. Below is a diagram of the protein. It has 468 amino acids. Two mutations have been isolated. Mutation #1 is a single base pair deletion (G in yellow highlights) in the coding region, corresponding to around the 200th amino acid in the protein. Mutation #2 is a 6 base pair deletion (yellow highlights) towards the end of the protein (green highlighted TAA is the stop codon). aa1 aa468 mutation #1 DNA sequence (sense strand): 5'......AAAATGGTAAAGGCCGTCGTAGGATTCGGCGCT ... 3' corresponding wildtype sequence: 5'...AAAATGGTAAAGGCCGTCGTAGGATTCGGCGCT ... 3' mutation #2 DNA sequence (sense strand): 5'......TACTGCCCATGCCCAGAGAGAAAGCGCAGACGCGTCTAA actgt... 3' corresponding wildtype sequence:
