Plays a role in the polyspermy inhibition. Probably acts as a protease for the post-fertilization cleavage of ZP2. Cleaves the sperm-binding ZP2 at the surface of the zona pellucida after fertilization and cortical granule exocytosis, rendering the zona pellucida unable to support further sperm binding (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |Astacin| |glutamic-type peptidase activity| |cortical granule| |prevention of polyspermy| |aspartic-type peptidase activity| |negative regulation of binding of sperm to zona pellucida| |regulation of binding of sperm to zona pellucida| |egg activation| |negative regulation of fertilization| |positive regulation of protein processing| |positive regulation of protein maturation| |regulation of fertilization| |negative regulation of reproductive process| |regulation of protein processing| |regulation of protein maturation| |transport vesicle| |metalloendopeptidase activity| |single fertilization| |regulation of reproductive process| |fertilization| |negative regulation of multi-organism process| |positive regulation of proteolysis| |regulation of proteolysis| |regulation of multi-organism process| |sexual reproduction| |zinc ion binding| |cell adhesion| |biological adhesion| |multi-organism reproductive process| |cell activation| |proteolysis| |reproductive process| |reproduction| |positive regulation of cellular protein metabolic process| |positive regulation of protein metabolic process| |positive regulation of gene expression| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp308|Rapamycin 2μM plus FK-506 5μM R07 exp308]]|1.7| |[[:results:exp72|LB-100 4.1μM R02 exp72]]|1.7| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
