Abstract

Recombinant DNA technology has revolutionized our understanding of many biological systems. However, such techniques and their application have not been fully exploited in the study of sperm zona interaction. Using examples from other biological systems, we ourline several experimental approaches that are likely to significantly enhance our understanding of the gamete recognition process.
