This should not confuse a SAS-1.1 receiver, which is supposed to only honor the first SOAF it sees. As noted by Jeff Gauvin (LSI), the SL_IR state machine in SAS-1.1 (which handles IDENTIFY address frames) differs from the SL_RA state machine (which handles OPEN address frames) in its handling of unexpected address frames and SOAFs before EOAFs. SL_IR only honors the first SOAF it sees, while S...

Background Following sperm penetration, oocyte is activated by sperm oocyte activating factors (SOAFs) released by sperm. Spermspecific phospholipase C isoform ζ (PLCζ) and post acrosomal WW binding protein (PAWP) are two nominees for the SOAF. PLCζ is located back-to-back with another testis-specific gene called CAPZA3. These two genes share a common bidirectional promoter. In this study we as...

OBJECTIVE The present study aimed to simultaneously evaluate the association between expression of three potential factors [post-acrosomal sheath WW domain-binding protein (PAWP), phospholipase Cζ (PLCζ), and truncated form of the kit receptor (TR-KIT)] as candidates of oocyte activation with fertilization rate and early embryonic development. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this experimental study,...

Low and/or total failed fertilization following ICSI is a disappointing effect that some couples may face during their treatment which may have severe social and economic consequences for these infertile couples. This phenomenon has been mainly attributed to failed oocyte activation post ICSI. Researchers have regarded this failure due to the absence or deficiency of sperm associated to oocyte ...
