ABSTRACT: Studies have been performed to identify the proteins present in canine seminal plasma (SP) and relate them to sperm quality as well as to discover molecular markers of reproductive tract diseases. There is evidence that heparin-binding proteins, zinc-binding proteins, and lactoferrin as well as the matrix metalloproteinase, superoxide dismutase, catalase, and glutathione peroxidase enzymes are associated with canine sperm quality. Other studies indicate that prolactin and enzymes like arginine esterase, acid phosphatase, and alkaline phosphatase could be successfully used as biomarkers of reproductive disorders. Thus, the present literature review aims to address aspects related to proteins of the canine SP, their influence on fertility, and their importance as biomarkers of reproductive disorders.

Copper Binding Proteins

Zinc- and copper-binding proteins were isolated from the plasma of winter flounder using gel filtration chromatography. A single copper-binding protein fraction of molecular weight 170 000 was isolated from the plasma of both sexes.In male and female flounder over 95% of the plasma zinc was associated with a zinc-binding protein(s) with a molecular weight of 76 000. In male flounder the remaining zinc appeared to be bound to a protein(s) of molecular weight 186 000. In female flounder the remaining 5% of the zinc was associated with two zinc-binding fractions with apparent molecular weights of 186 000 and 340 000 – 370 000.Extracts of plasma vitellogenin and egg yolk proteins revealed significant quantities of zinc and copper. It is hypothesized that the female specific zinc-binding protein (340 000 – 370 000) was vitellogenin.

1. Gel filtration on Sephadex G 75 was used to separate the medium-molecular-weight zinc-binding proteins from the soluble fractions from the duodenal and jejuno-ileal segments of the rat gut at 30 min after the intragastric administration of a tracer dose of 65Zn. These proteins were resolved by ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE cellulose.2. In both the duodenum and jejuno-ileal segment an appreciable fraction of the total soluble Zn was bound in a protein fraction that resembled metallothionein [MT] in its behaviour on gel filtration. These fractions, however, were not homogeneous, but contained several medium-molecular-weight Zn-binding proteins. In the duodenum, but not in the jejuno-ileal segment, two ofthese proteins appeared to be the isometallothioneins, ZnMT-I and ZnMT-11.3. These results suggest a possible role for MT in the binding of newly-absorbed Zn in the duodenal mucosal cells. They also show that gel filtration alone is insufficient for the identification of MT in the intestine.
