Loss of Cysteine-Rich Secretory Protein 4 (Crisp4) Leads to Deficiency in Sperm-Zona Pellucida Interaction in Mice1

24 Aug 2011

Abstract excerpt

Mammalian sperm gain their ability to fertilize the egg during transit through the epididymis and by interacting with proteins secreted by the epididymal epithelial cells. Certain members of the CRISP (cysteine-rich secretory protein) family form the major protein constituent of the luminal fluid in the mammalian epididymis. CRISP4 is the newest member of the CRISP family expressed predominantly in the...
