The vertebrate egg coat, including mammalian zona pellucida, is an oocyte-specific extracellular matrix comprising two to six zona pellucida (ZP) glycoproteins. The egg coat plays important roles in fertilization, especially in species-specific interactions with sperm to induce the sperm acrosome reaction and to form the block to polyspermy. It is suggested that the physiological functions of the...
The low density, detergent-insoluble membrane fraction (LD-DIM), where gangliosides are likely to be highly enriched, was prepared from sperm of two sea urchin species, Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus and Strongylocentrotus purpuratus. Immunoblotting showed the presence in the LD-DIM of two receptors for egg ligands, a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein, and four proteins which may be...
