Identification and expression analysis of Drosophilamelanogaster genes encoding β-hexosaminidases of the sperm plasma membrane

29 May 2006

Abstract excerpt

Sperm surface beta-N-acetylhexosaminidases are among the molecules mediating early gamete interactions in invertebrates and vertebrates, including man. The plasma membrane of Drosophila spermatozoa contains two beta-N-acetylhexosaminidases, DmHEXA and DmHEXB, which are required for egg fertilization. Here, we demonstrate that three putative Drosophila melanogaster genes predicted to code for...
