Sexual selection and pseudogenization in primate fertilization

2022-05-17

Abstract excerpt

The mouse sperm protein ZP3R interacts with proteins in the egg coat and mediates sperm–egg adhesion in a species-specific manner. Understanding the function and evolution of such genes has important implications for studies of speciation, reproductive success, and infertility. A recent analysis showed that (1) the human pseudogene C4BPAP1 is the ortholog of Zp3r , (2) ZP3R pseudogenization evolved independentl...
