reproductive system
• hook-like structures at the apical sperm head
|
• over the whole sperm head, swollen
• however, mitochondria morphology is normal
|
• slightly decreased average path velocity, straight-line velocity, and curvilinear velocity after incubation in capacitating medium compared with wild-type sperm from mice with a mixed background
• however, sperm motility is comparable to published motility values of C57BL/6 wild-type mice
|
• however, infertility is rescued by transgene expression of the wild-type sequence
|
• sperm are unable to fertilize cumulus-intact and cumulus-free oocytes and exhibit reduced fusion to zona pellucida-free oocytes
