Abstract
Zonadhesin is a recently discovered sperm membrane protein that binds to the extracellular matrix of the egg in a species-specific manner. T he gene for zonadhesin maps to chromosome 5 in the mouse (Zan) and to chromosome 7 in the human (ZAN) in a position near the gene for the eg g extracellular matrix protein ZP3.
