Quantitative analysis of Caenorhabditis elegans sperm motility and how it is affected by mutants spe11 and unc54.

Cell motility and the cytoskeleton - 1 Jan 1997

Abstract excerpt

The sperm of Caenorhabditis elegans translocate in a fashion similar to sperm of Ascaris suum even though their pseudopods are longer, more plastic in shape, and form multiple expansions zones around their perimeter. Mutants in spe-11 form primary spermatocytes with a defective perinuclear region, but the resulting spermatozoa can still crawl and fertilize eggs. However, the resultant zygotes die due to the...
