Loss of the cleaved-protamine 2 domain leads to incomplete histone-to-protamine exchange and infertility in mice
Protamines are unique sperm-specific proteins that package and protect paternal chromatin until fertilization. A subset of mammalian species expresses two protamines (PRM1 and PRM2), while in others PRM1 is sufficient for sperm chromatin packaging. Alterations of the species-specific ratio between P...
