Phospholipase C zeta undergoes dynamic changes in its pattern of localization in sperm during capacitation and the acrosome reaction
Objective: To evaluate the localization of phospholipase Cζ (PLCζ) in non-capacitated, capacitated, and ionophore-treated sperm. Design: Phospholipase Cζ was cloned from the hamster, an important model organism for studying fertilization. Next, we used hamster and mouse models to investigate the loc...
