摘要


We have previously described the affinity of a pig sperm surface protein, P68, to mammalian zonae pellucidae (ZP). In this report, we identified P68 as arylsulfatase A (AS-A) based on the presence of P68 tryptic peptide sequences in the pig testis AS-A cDNA sequence. Our objective was to demonstrate the presence of AS-A on the sperm surface and to elucidate its role in ZP binding. Immunogold electron microscopy revealed the presence of AS-A on the sperm surface. Furthermore, live pig sperm and the extract of peripheral sperm plasma membrane proteins exhibited AS-A's desulfation activity. Significantly, the role of pig sperm surface AS-A in ZP binding was demonstrated by dose-dependent decreases of sperm-ZP binding upon sperm pretreatment with anti-AS-A IgG/Fab, and by the binding of Alexa-430-conjugated sperm surface AS-A to homologous ZP. ZP pretreatment with anti-pig-ZP3 antibody abolished AS-A binding, suggesting that ZP3, recognized as the pig sperm receptor, was AS-A's binding ligand. This was further confirmed by the ability of exogenous ZP3 to competitively inhibit AS-A-ZP binding. Similarly, purified ZP3alpha, a major sperm receptor component of ZP3, exhibited great inhibitory effect on AS-A-ZP binding. All of these results designated a new function of AS-A in gamete interaction.
