Regulation of the Actin Cytoskeleton-Linked Ca<sup>2+</sup> Signaling by Intracellular pH in Fertilized Eggs of Sea Urchin
In sea urchin, the immediate contact of the acrosome-reacted sperm with the egg surface triggers a series of structural and ionic changes in the egg cortex. Within one minute after sperm fuses with the egg plasma membrane, the cell membrane potential changes with the concurrent increases in intracel...
