Identification of ejaculated proteins in the house mouse (Mus domesticus) via isotopic labeling

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Seminal fluid plays an important role in successful fertilization, but knowledge of the full suite of proteins transferred from males to females during copulation is incomplete. The list of ejaculated proteins remains particularly scant in one of the best-studied mammalian systems, the house mouse (Mus domesticus), where artificial ejaculation techniques have proven inadequate. Here we investigate an...
