Oocyte Galα1,3Gal Epitopes Implicated in Sperm Adhesion to the Zona Pellucida Glycoprotein ZP3 Are Not Required for Fertilization in the Mouse

1 Sept 1995

Abstract excerpt

The Gal alpha 1-->3Gal structure is displayed on the zona pellucida glycoprotein ZP3 on murine oocytes. This trisaccharide has been implicated in sperm-zona pellucida adhesive events thought to be essential to fertilization in the mouse. To determine directly if this molecule is required for fertilization, we have generated mice that are deficient in a gene (alpha 1,3GT) encoding the UDP-Gal:beta-D-Gal-alpha...
