Catalyzes the formation of the signaling molecule cAMP (PubMed:12609998, PubMed:15659711, PubMed:24616449, PubMed:25040695, PubMed:24567411).
May function as sensor that mediates responses to changes in cellular bicarbonate and CO(2) levels (PubMed:15659711, PubMed:17591988).
Has a critical role in mammalian spermatogenesis by producing the cAMP which regulates cAMP-responsive nuclear factors indispensable for sperm maturation in the epididymis.
Induces capacitation, the maturational process that sperm undergo prior to fertilization (By similarity).
Involved in ciliary beat regulation (PubMed:17591988).
Applications:Suitable for use in ELISA and Immunohistochemistry.
