Research Abstract |
We have developed a new technology of proteomics with high sensitivity for detecting trace of proteins released from mouse sperm during capacitation. Novel proteins derived from sperm were identified using the system. These findings suggested that identified proteins have potential to regulate the sperm functions which are useful to understand the mechanism of fertility control in sperm via the proteins.
