Abstract
This article reviews the advances in the studies of A-kinase anchor proteins (AKAPs) in sperm, including their classification, structure and mechanism. The influence of AKAPs that are involved on sperm mobility and acrosome reaction is emphasized. We hope it could play a directive role in the studies of AKAPs that are involved in regulating sperm mobility and acrosome reaction.
