IZUMO1

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: IZUMO1
  • Official Name: izumo sperm-egg fusion 1
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 284359
  • UniProt: Q8IYV9
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Essential sperm cell-surface protein required for fertilization by acting as a ligand for IZUMO1R/JUNO receptor on egg. The IZUMO1:IZUMO1R/JUNO interaction is a necessary adhesion event between sperm and egg that is required for fertilization but is not sufficient for cell fusion. The ligand-receptor interaction probably does not act as a membrane 'fusogen'. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15759005}.
