Does someone with experience in this area know whether the mouse is considered a valid model for the human cell biology and biochemistry of gamete maturation and subsequent fertilization? Courtland 20:57, 2005 Apr 6 (UTC)

biological event[edit]

"glycosidasic enzymes such as heparin." is nonsense. Glycosidases? Glycans such as heparin? Needs attention from expert. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.81.144.51 (talk) 17:56, 1 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

what is it? what are the changes?--M siterman 19:45, 27 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This is a very poor definition and needs revising. An explanation of the biochemical events that occur would be useful.

'Final step'[edit]

The final step in sperm maturation is sperm activation, not sperm capacitation. Without activation there is no acrosome reaction Snellios (talk) 13:16, 21 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Heparin is indeed not an enzyme, but rather a proteoglycan. In the body there is little production of heparin, but much more of the relative of heparin, heparan sulfate, which would be the correct term. I guess penultimate means the second last step. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.254.131.5 (talk) 19:37, 15 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
