Sperm surface protein Sp17 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SPA17 gene.[1][2]

This gene encodes a protein present at the cell surface. Studies in rabbit suggest that in sperm the protein is involved in fertilization by binding to the zona pellucida of the oocyte. Other studies in rabbit suggest that it is also involved in additional cell-cell adhesion functions such as immune cell migration and metastasis.[2]

'Diskathing

by: Subb

You may not care but don't be naive
Well take The best The positive aspect
Have some friends and a punkska band
I guess that's The key to your sobriety
Even if you're a pervert use your head
Before you date this girl, you better sure you've bled
It's o.k. you'll do some mistakes
Like Ace Ventura with Snowflakes
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
Life is like diskathing
And someday you'll have a lovely wife
You'll do like O.J. and kill her with a knife
You'll obey to your bastard dog
Live across The street from a big fat slob
You will be a fucking statistic
Another man without a diploma
But after all you'll be happy
Cause you know man, this is The key
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[Solo]
Ba-ba-ba, ba-Barbara ann!!! [x3]
[Chorus]
