Role of the sperm proteasome during fertilization and gamete interaction in the mouse
1 Jan 2005

In this work, we have investigated the role of the sperm proteasome during in vitro fertilization (IVF) and gamete interaction in the mouse. Proteasome activity was measured in extract and intact sperm using a specific substrate.
