Background Information
Testis Expressed Metallothionein Like Protein (Tesmin), also known as Metallothionein-Like 5 (MTL5), encodes the metallothionein-like protein owning some characteristics of metallothionein. Tesmin is a 60 kDa protein which has cysteine-rich motifs (CXC domain), characteristic of metallothioneins (MTs). Tesmin was closely related to meiosis in the reproductive process. As a testis-specific protein, the localization of Tesmin changed dynamically with the progression of meiosis in a mouse experiment, the process of which might be responsive to metal stress like cadmium by oxidative stress (Cd), as well as require the involvement of LIN9. So far, the expression of Tesmin in adult humans has been observed in prostate and gastric cancer (PMID: 39229988, PMID: 33281959, PMID: 31059101).
