The human zona pellucida is composed of four glycoproteins (ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4) and
has an important role in reproduction. Here we describe a form of infertility with an …

In most species, the zona pellucida (ZP), an extracellular matrix surrounding the mammalian
oocyte, is composed of three glycoproteins: ZPA, ZPB and ZPC. Based mainly on results …

The zona pellucida (ZP) is an extracellular matrix surrounding the oocyte and the early
embryo that exerts several important functions during fertilization and early embryonic …

Recent studies document that the zona pellucida matrix of human oocytes is composed of
four glycoproteins designated as ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4 instead of three as proposed in …

The extracellular zona pellucida surrounds mammalian eggs and mediates taxon-specific
sperm-egg recognition at fertilization. In mice, the zona pellucida is composed of three …

Many secreted eukaryotic glycoproteins that play fundamental roles in development,
hearing, immunity, and cancer polymerize into filaments and extracellular matrices through …

The mammalian zona pellucida is a mixture of glycoproteins, believed to be encoded by
three distinct genes, ZP1/ZPB, ZP2/ZPA, and ZP3/ZPC. We have now determined that the …

The zona pellucida (ZP), the extracellular glycocalyx that surrounds the oocyte, is well
known to mediate homologous gamete interaction. In a previous study from our laboratories …

The zona pellucida (ZP) is an extracellular matrix surrounding the oocyte and the early
embryo that exerts several important functions during fertilization and early embryonic …

Human zona pellucida (ZP) matrix, a delicate network of thin interconnected filaments, is
primarily composed of four glycoproteins, namely, ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4. All four zona …
