Genetic Disruption of the Copulatory Plug in Mice Leads to Severely Reduced Fertility
Seminal fluid proteins affect fertility at multiple stages in reproduction. In many species, a male's ejaculate coagulates to form a copulatory plug. Although taxonomically widespread, the molecular details of plug formation remain poorly understood, limiting our ability to manipulate the struc...
