Eukaryotic fertilization and gamete fusion at a glance.
Journal of Cell Science, 2022 In sexually reproducing organisms, the genetic information is transmitted from one generation to the next via the merger of male and female gametes. Gamete fusion is a two-step process involving membrane recognition and apposition through ligand-receptor

Discovery of archaeal fusexins homologous to eukaryotic HAP2/GCS1 gamete fusion proteins
Nature Communications, 2021 Sexual reproduction consists of genome reduction by meiosis and subsequent gamete fusion. The presence of genes homologous to eukaryotic meiotic genes in archaea and bacteria suggests that DNA repair mechanisms evolved towards meiotic recombination ...

Plasmodium falciparum Development from Gametocyte to Oocyst: Insight from Functional Studies
Microorganisms, 2023 Malaria elimination may never succeed without the implementation of transmission-blocking strategies. The transmission of Plasmodium spp. parasites from the human host to the mosquito vector depends on circulating gametocytes in the peripheral blood of ...

Study of the children’s descent caused by mitochondrial transfer method [PDF]
مطالعات فقه و حقوق اسلامی, 2021 One of the human achievements in the treatment mitochondria is mitochondrial transmission. The disease is caused by a defect in the mother's gamete, for this reason, doctors try to put the mother gamete nucleus in the gamete without the donor female ...

The Sperm Protein Spaca6 is Essential for Fertilization in Zebrafish
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 Fertilization is a key process in all sexually reproducing species, yet the molecular mechanisms that underlie this event remain unclear. To date, only a few proteins have been shown to be essential for sperm-egg binding and fusion in mice, and only some
