We have been able to induce sperm nuclear decondensation in the mussel Mytilus californianus (mollusc) using either egg extracts or pure nucleoplasmin from Xenopus (amphibian). The nuclear decondensation involves removal of the sperm nuclear basic proteins (SNBPs) which bind to nucleoplasmin. An attempt has been made to isolate an ooplasmic factor from Mytilus with a similar sperm-chromatin decondensing activity. An acidic, thermostable protein with a molecular mass of 58,000 has been purified and partially characterized.
