Background and References

The is an extracellular matrix that surrounds the and early embryo. It is composed primarily of three or four with various functions during fertilization and preimplantation development. ZP2 is a structural component of the zona pellucida and functions in secondary binding and penetration of acrosome-reacted spermatozoa. The nascent protein contains a N-terminal sequence, a conserved ZP domain, a consensus cleavage site, and a C-terminal transmembrane domain. It is hypothesized that furin cleavage results in release of the mature protein from the plasma membrane for subsequent incorporation into the zona pellucida matrix. However, the requirement for furin cleavage in this process remains controversial based BACKGROUND: on mouse studies.The zona pellucida is an extracellular matrix that surrounds the oocyte and early embryo.
