Somatic Histones Are Components of the Perinuclear Theca in Bovine Spermatozoa
1 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
The perinuclear theca is a non-ionic detergent-resistant, electron-dense layer surrounding the condensed nucleus of mammalian sperm. The known proteins originating from the perinuclear theca have implicated the structure in a variety of important cellular processes during spermiogenesis and fertilization. Nonetheless, the composition of the perinuclear theca remains largely unexplored. We have isolated a group of...
