[sperm oocyte binding 3] This protein has been described by Martin Ruiz C et al (1998). It is expressed in spermatozoa and participates in secondary sperm binding to the zona pellucida. Sequence analysis of the cloned cDNA shows that SOB3 is 98 % identical to the antimicrobial peptides prepro FALL39 and 100 % identical to CAP-18 (Hammami-Hamza et al, 2001).
