Role of Sperm Surface Arylsulfatase A in Mouse Sperm-Zona Pellucida Binding1
1 Jul 2002
Abstract excerpt
We have previously described the zonae pellucidae (ZP) binding ability of a pig sperm surface protein, P68. Our recent results on peptide sequencing of 3 P68 tryptic peptides and molecular cloning of pig testis arylsulfatase A (AS-A) revealed the identity of P68 as AS-A. In this report, we demonstrate the presence of AS-A on the mouse sperm surface and its role in ZP binding. Using anti-AS-A antibody, we have...
