The essential calcium channel of sperm CatSper is temperature-gated
Abstract The flagellar calcium channel CatSper is essential for male fertility, as it regulates calcium influx to trigger the hyperactive motility required for sperm to fertilize the egg. Precise activation of CatSper is critical, as premature activation can impair sperm function. While optimal temp...
