A factor associated with sea urchin eggs that increases sperm cyclic nucleotide concentrations and respiration rates was identified as having a low molecular weight. The factor was more potent at elevating cyclic GMP concentrations than cyclic AMP concentrations, and represents the first demonstration of a factor associated with eggs that is capable of causing elevations of sperm cyclic GMP. Concentration-response curves of the crude mixture of egg factors to increase sperm cyclic AMP and cyclic GMP concentrations and respiratory rates were very similar, and comparable losses of these three activities were observed after extensive dialysis and heat treatment of the crude egg factors. The factor was partly purified by ethanol precipitation of a large molecular weight egg jelly component, and by charcoal adsorption and LH-20 chromatography of the resultant ethanol-soluble material. The factor was not extracted into a variety of organic solvents and had an apparent molecular weight of between 1000 and 2000, as estimated by gel filtration.
