Human Gene Set: GOBP_ACROSOME_REACTION

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOBP_ACROSOME_REACTION

Standard name GOBP_ACROSOME_REACTION
Systematic name M14797
Brief description The discharge, by sperm, of a single, anterior secretory granule following the sperm's attachment to the zona pellucida of the oocyte. The process begins with the fusion of the outer acrosomal membrane with the sperm plasma membrane and ends with the exocytosis of the acrosomal contents into the zona pellucida.
