Tissue specificity:Proximal caput region of the epididymis. Lower expression in the testis. Within the testis it is localized to the elongating spermatids, whereas within the epididymis it is exclusively synthesized by the proximal caput epithelium.
Induction:Testicular factors or hormones other than androgens present in the testicular fluid may be involved in the regulation of CRES gene expression.
Developmental stage:
Protein families:Cystatin family
