受精是位于卵子和精子表面的分子之间一系列精心设计的相互作用的结果。最近对这些表面分子的分子特征的研究使我们对它们在配子识别和结合中的作用有了更深入的了解。我们对这些最新进展进行了综述，重点介绍了海胆这一研究施肥的经典系统。重点介绍了一种新的细胞识别分子——海胆卵质膜精子受体的结构和功能。
Fertilization is the result of a series of well-choreographed interactions between molecules located on the surfaces of the egg and the sperm. The recent molecular characterizations of several of these surface molecules has led to a greater understanding of their roles in gamete recognition and binding. We present a review of these recent advances with emphasis on the sea urchin, a classic system for the study of fertilization. In particular, the structure and function of the sea urchin egg plasma membrane receptor for sperm, a novel cell recognition molecule, is discussed.
