The Calcium-mobilizing Messenger Nicotinic Acid Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate Participates in Sperm Activation by Mediating the Acrosome Reaction
Before a sperm can fertilize an egg it must undergo a final activation step induced by the egg termed the acrosome reaction. During the acrosome reaction a lysosome-related organelle, the acrosome, fuses with the plasma membrane to release hydrolytic enzymes and expose an egg-binding protein. Becaus...
