Cysteine-Rich Secretory Proteins (CRISP) are Key Players in Mammalian Fertilization and Fertility
Mammalian fertilization is a complex process involving a series of successive sperm-egg interaction steps mediated by different molecules and mechanisms. Studies carried out during the past 30 years, using a group of proteins named CRISP (Cysteine-RIch Secretory Proteins), have significantly contrib...
