Hydrogen Peroxide Production, Chemiluminescence, and the Respiratory Burst of Fertilization: Interrelated Events in Early Sea Urchin Development

After fertilization of the sea urchin, Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, a crosslinked fertilization membrane is formed; the crosslinks (dityrosine residues) are synthesized in a reaction catalyzed by an ovoperoxidase that is released from the cortical granules during fertilization. The substrate for o...
