A conserved mouse sperm antigen (MSA-63) recognized by a monoclonal antibody (HS-63) was isolated from mouse testes by single-step immunoaffinity chromatography. Isolated MSA-63 preparation was shown to be a group of proteins ranging from 24-84 kDa and with isoelectric points (pIs) ranging from 4.0-6.0 when analyzed by two-dimensional (2-D) gel electrophoresis. Microsequencing techniques were employed to determine the relationships of various protein spots on 2-D gels. Partial amino acid sequences of some protein spots in isolated MSA-63 preparation were shown to be homologous to mouse actins, while others revealed homology only to the SP-10 protein. Rabbit antisera raised against isolated MSA-63 antigen preparation were used to immunoscreen a mouse testis cDNA library. Isolated cDNA clones carrying a 1.2-kb insert were used to obtain nucleotide sequences containing open-reading frames and to deduce the corresponding amino acid sequence of MSA-63. A high degree of homology was observed between MSA-63 and a known human sperm antigen, SP-10, at DNA/protein levels. Amino acid sequences of tryptic peptides derived from protein spots of 24-47 kDa and pIs of 4.2-4.4 were found to be identical to those deduced from isolated cDNA clones. The gene expression of MSA-63 during spermatogenesis in mice was studied using a specific cDNA probe as well as HS-63. It was observed that MSA-63 was not expressed until the postmeiotic stages of spermatogenesis.
