Fig. 6: RBPs’ interaction with mRNAs during bovine sperm capacitation is phosphorylation-associated.
From: Systematic mRNA interactome analysis reconceptualizes translational quiescence in bovine sperm

Several sperm proteins undergo phosphorylation events during capacitation. Phosphoproteome (Supplementary Data S3) and differential protein expression (Supplementary Data S4) analysis revealed 10 and 4 RBPs to be phosphorylated and differentially expressed, respectively. This could influence mRNA processing, export, degradation, and binding to regulate translation during capacitation. Created in BioRender. Tiwari, S. (2025) https://BioRender.com/gmecv67.
