## Abstract The acrosome reaction of newt sperm is induced at the surface of egg jelly and the acrosome‐reacted sperm acquire the ability to bind to the vitelline envelope. However, because the substance that induces the acrosome reaction has not been identified, the mechanism by which the acrosome
