Cytoskeleton localization in the sperm head prior to fertilization
28 Jun 2005
Abstract excerpt
Three major cytoskeletal proteins, actin, tubulin and spectrin, are present in the head of mammalian spermatozoa. Although cytoskeletal proteins are implicated in the regulation of capacitation and the acrosome reaction (AR), their exact role remains poorly understood. The aim of this study was to compare the distribution of the sperm head cytoskeleton before and after the AR in spermatozoa representing a range...
