Characterization of the porcine seminal plasma proteome

This proteomic study provides the major characterization of a complex and diverse protein composition of the boar SP-proteome with more than 250 proteins first reported. This proteomic profiling allows the creation of a publicly accessible database of the boar SP-proteome, as a first step for further understanding the role of SP-proteins in reproductive outcomes as well as for identification of biomarkers for sperm quality and fertility.
