  1. In silico analysis of the human SPAM1 5' flanking region detected several putative transcription factor binding sites associated with epididymal expression. Androgen responsive elements (ARE), GATA-family sequences, and PEA3 sequences are markers for epididymal expression [43]. SRY and CRE are markers for testicular expression.
