Abstract

Proteinase activity was found to be present along the sides of sperm penetration tunnels through the zonae pellucidae of rabbit ova using silver‐proteinate staining techniques. This is the first direct confirmation of the generally accepted concept of sperm penetration by proteinase release and digestion of the zona pellucida.

Mammalian eggs are surrounded by two egg coats: the cumulus oophorus and the zona pellucida, which is an extracellular matrix composed of sulfated glycoproteins. The first association of the spermatozoon with the zona pellucida occurs between the zona glycoprotein, ZP3 and sperm receptors, located a
