The direct electrophysiological characterization of sperm Ca 2ϩ channels has been precluded by their small size and flat shape. An alternative to study these channels is to use spermatogenic cells, the progenitors of sperm, which are larger and easier to patch-clamp. In mouse and rat, the only volta
