Taxon-specific sperm binding to ovulated eggs. (A) Ovulated eggs and two-cell embryos from normal and human ZP4 transgenic females were incubated with capacitated epididymal mouse sperm or capacitated human sperm from fertile donors. Washes to remove nonadherent sperm were performed until three or fewer sperm were bound to control two-cell embryos. Insets are higher magnification of individual eggs from lower magnification field. Eggs, embryos, and sperm were stained with DAPI to detect DNA. (B) Same as (A), but with uninseminated, immature human oocytes.
