Xenopus Cdc6 confers sperm binding competence to oocytes without inducing their maturation
Amphibian eggs normally require meiotic maturation to be competent for fertilization. A necessary prerequisite for this event is sperm binding, and we show that under normal physiological conditions this property is acquired at, but not before, meiotic maturation. Immature oocytes do not bind sperm,...
