Testicular soluble adenylyl cyclase, also known as SAC, is a human gene.[1]

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to a distinct class of mammalian adenylyl cyclase that is soluble in testis but particularly in sperm and other tissues. It is unlike other mammalian adenylyl cyclases because it is insensitive to G protein or forskolin regulation and is directly regulated by bicarbonate. It is localized in the cytoplasm and to organelles and is thought to function as a general bicarbonate sensor throughout the body. It plays an important role in the generation of cAMP in spermatozoa, playing possible roles in sperm capacitation, hypermotility, and/or the acrosome reaction.[1]
