An MN9 Antigenic Molecule, Equatorin, Is Required for Successful Sperm-Oocyte Fusion in Mice1

1 Jul 1998

Abstract excerpt

The acrosome plays an important role in fertilization. This study was designed to examine the role and behavior of a molecule, equatorin (the antigenic molecule of the monoclonal antibody mMN9), localized at the equatorial segment of the acrosome. In vitro fertilization (IVF) investigation was conducted to examine the role of this molecule, by assessing the effect of mMN9 in TYH medium (a modified Krebs Ringer...
