Dataset Summary
| Title | Proteomic characterisation of Japanese quail’s unique seminal foam |
| Description | Seminal fluid plays an important role in fertilisation success, yet the molecular components of seminal fluid and their function remain poorly understood in most species. This study provides the first comprehensive proteomic characterisation of a unique seminal foam produced by the Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica), revealing its potential mechanistic function in sperm regulation, sperm motility, immune protection, and fertilisation success. By identifying key proteins associated with energy production, membrane fluidity, and sperm maturation, our findings suggest the foam may influence post-ejaculatory sperm function. Additionally, the identification of immunity proteins indicates a role in sperm protection and modulation of female immune responses. This study advances our understanding of avian reproductive biology and opens new avenues for investigating the specific role of seminal foam proteins in fertilisation dynamics and post-copulatory sexual selection. |
