The mammalian zona pellucida: its biochemistry, immunochemistry, molecular biology, and developmental expression

1 Jun 1994

Abstract excerpt

Many studies of the molecular and biochemical aspects of mammalian fertilization have focused on the interaction of the spermatozoa with the zona pellucida (ZP). The zona pellucida, a unique extracellular matrix surrounding the mammalian oocyte, is formed during ovarian follicular development. Following ovulation of the mature ovum, the spermatozoa must bind to and penetrate this matrix before the fertilization...
