http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/30328350http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"A number of sperm proteins are involved in the processes from gamete adhesion to fusion, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Here, we established a mouse mutant, the EQUATORIN-knockout (EQTN-KO, Eqtn - / - ) mouse model and found that the EQTN-KO males have reduced fertility and sperm-egg adhesion, while the EQTN-KO females are fertile. Eqtn - / - sperm were normal in morphology and motility. Eqtn - / - -Tg (Acr-Egfp) sperm, which were produced as the acrosome reporter by crossing Eqtn - / - with Eqtn +/+ -Tg(Acr-Egfp) mice, traveled to the oviduct ampulla and penetrated the egg zona pellucida of WT females. However, Eqtn - / - males mated with WT females showed significant reduction in both fertility and the number of sperm attached to the zona-free oocyte. Sperm IZUMO1 and egg CD9 behaved normally in Eqtn - / - sperm when they were fertilized with WT egg. Another acrosomal protein, SPESP1, behaved aberrantly in Eqtn - / - sperm during the acrosome reaction. The fertility impairment of EQTN/SPESP1-double KO males lacking Eqtn and Spesp1 (Eqtn/Spesp1 - / - ) was more severe compared with that of Eqtn - / - males. Eqtn - / - -Tg (Eqtn) males, which were generated to rescue Eqtn - / - males, restored the reduced fertility."xsd:string
