pubmed:abstractText |
Lectin-like molecules on the sperm surface are implicated in the process of gamete recognition and adhesion. We have isolated and biochemically characterized a 15 kDa glycoprotein from ejaculated boar sperm which possess zona pellucida-binding- and haemagglutinating-activity. The zona/15 kDa protein interaction is inhibited by fucoidan, suggesting that the glycoprotein is one of the sperm components which participate in the initial gamete interaction. N-Terminal sequence analysis of the isolated 15 kDa glycoprotein showed that it may belong to the same sperm/egg recognition-mediating protein family as the sea urchin sperm protein binding.
