Biochemical alterations in the proacrosin-acrosin system during epididymal maturation of the rat spermatozoa

Acrosin, an acrosomal serine protease, is believed to have a role in fertilization. The enzyme is synthesized in an enzymatically inactive precursor form, proacrosin, and is processed to enzymatically active form(s). In the studies presented here, maturation‐associated changes in the proacrosin‐acro...
