Identification and functional analysis of an ovarian form of the egg activation factor phospholipase C Zeta (PLCζ) in pufferfish.
Recent studies suggest that egg activation in mammals is triggered by a sperm-specific phospholipase C, PLCzeta. In other vertebrate species such as medaka fish, chickens, and quail, PLCzeta is also expressed as a testis-specific mRNA. Functional studies suggest that PLCzeta plays a similar role as...
