The multifunctional role of SPANX-A/D protein subfamily in the promotion of pro-tumoural processes in human melanoma
Abstract Human sperm protein associated with the nucleus on the X chromosome (SPANX) genes encode a protein family (SPANX-A, -B, -C and -D), whose expression is limited to the testis and spermatozoa in normal tissues and various tumour cells. SPANX-A/D proteins have been detected in metastatic melan...
