Cyclic AMP stimulates sperm motility in a variety of mammalian species, but the molecular details of the intracellular signaling pathway responsible for this effect are unclear. The type IIalpha isoform of protein kinase A (PKA) is induced late in spermatogenesis and is thought to localize PKA to the flagellar apparatus where it binds cAMP and stimulates motility. A targeted disruption of the type IIalpha regulatory subunit (RIIalpha ) gene allowed us to examine the role of PKA localization in sperm motility and fertility. In wild type sperm, PKA is found primarily in the detergent-resistant particulate fraction and localizes to the mitochondrial-containing midpiece and the principal piece. In mutant sperm, there is a compensatory increase in RIalpha protein and a dramatic relocalization of PKA such that the majority of the holoenzyme now appears in the soluble fraction and colocalizes with the cytoplasmic droplet. Unexpectedly the RIIalpha mutant mice are fertile and have no significant changes in sperm motility. Our results demonstrate that the highly localized pattern of PKA seen in mature sperm is not essential for motility or fertilization.
