## Abstract Mouse egg activation, which includes release from meiotic metaphase II arrest, results from fertilization‐induced increase in intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca^2+^]~i~). However, during egg activation caused by exposure to the protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide, [Ca^2+^]~

## Abstract Mammalian sperm possess guanine nucleotide‐binding regulatory proteins (G proteins) that are involved in signal transduction pathways leading to __zona pellucida__ (ZP)‐mediated acrosomal exocytosis. We have previously examined ZP‐G protein dynamics in mouse sperm homogenates, as well a
