A ram epididymal secretory protein shares common antigenic determinants with rat epididymal proteins and human seminal plasma proteins.
Mammalian spermatozoa leave the testis as immature cells unable to fertilize until they have traversed the epididymis. Sperm maturation is an orchestrated series of sequential events occurring at different levels of the epididymis : sperm-zona pellucida binding ability in the proximal epididymis, progressive motility and the ability to penetrate and fertilize the oocyte in the middle epididymis...
متن کاملThe effect of seminal plasma on the quality of coated ram frozen-thawed spermatozoa
Two experiments were designed to examine the effects of crude seminal plasma (CSP) exposure ofejaculated and epididymal spermatozoa before freezing. Experiment 1, two consecutive ejaculates werecollected (n=4) within 5 min, the second one was carried out in a tube containing Fiser extender (coatedspermatozoa); by centrifugation, seminal plasma was removed from coated ejaculates. The pellets wer...
متن کاملIdentification of a calcium-binding protein as a calcium-dependent regulator of brain adenylate cyclase.
An activating factor of adenylate cyclase (EC 4.6.1.1) HAS BEEN OBTAINED FROM DETERGENT-DISPERSED PREPARATIONS OF PORCINE CEREBRAL CORTEX BY COLUMN CHROMATOGRAPHY ON ECTEOLA-cellulose. The factor was identified by acrylamide gel electrophoresis and by enzyme activation studies as the Ca2+-binding protein that regulates the activity of a brain cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase. This Ca2+-bindi...
متن کاملStimulation of glycogen synthase phosphorylation by calcium-dependent regulator protein.
Phosphorylation of skeletal muscle glycogen synthase catalyzed by a protein kinase is stimulated up to 10-fold by the calcium-dependent regulator (CDR) protein. Half-maximal stimulation requires about 1 microgram of CDR/ml. Phosphorylation by the CDR-dependent synthase kinase is more rapid at pH 8.6 than at pH 6.8 and is blocked by ethylene glycol bis(beta-aminoethyl-ether)N,N'-tetraacetic acid...
متن کاملdetection and isolation of mcp (cd46) protein in human seminal plasma
introduction: mcp (membrane cofactor protein or cd46) is a complement regulatory proteins (crps), which is present in most of body cell membranes (except erythrocytes), and also in most biologycal body fliuds. due to the important role of this protein in the complement system, specially in fertility, the aim of this study was to determine and isolate this protein in human seminal plasma. materi...
