 C&EN: TODAY'S HEADLINES - Odor Receptors May Attract Sperm To Eggs
Researchers at Ruhr University Bochum, in Germany, and the University of California, Los Angeles, have uncovered evidence that the attraction may depend on the binding of a compound released in the female reproductive system to an odor receptor on the sperm [Science, 299, 2054 (2003)].
“Their results indicate that sperm might be selected on the basis of their ability to ‘smell’ the egg,” says Babcock, who is in the University of Washington’s physiology and biophysics department.
Among the best activating ligands for the receptor is bourgeonal, which proves to be “both a potent chemoattractant and an effective swimming stimulant to navigating sperm cells,” the researchers say.
