Binding of sperms to the oocyte is mediated by complementary molecules on the surface of both gametes and involves the interaction of sperm protein receptors with the zona pellucida (ZP) saccharide structures. Sperm surface proteins were isolated from ejaculated and capacitated boar sperms and characterized 1D, 2D protein profiles, glycoprotein staining and substrate zymographic methods for enzymatic activities. Interactions between sperm surface proteins of both ejaculated and capacitated sperms with ZP glycoproteins were studied. Panel of monoclonal antibodies (MoAbs) against sperm surface proteins was prepared; antibodies were screened for protein detection with ZP-binding activity. Results have shown the quantitative and qualitative differences in 1D and 2D protein, and glycoprotein profiles between ejaculated and capacitated sperms. ZP-binding assay proved more interactions in case of capacitated sperms. Some MoAbs were staining regions responsible for ZP-binding.
