Divergent effect of mammalian PLCζ in generating Ca2+ oscillations in somatic cells compared with eggs

Sperm PLCζ (phospholipase Cζ) is a distinct phosphoinositide-specific PLC isoform that is proposed to be the physiological trigger of egg activation and embryo development at mammalian fertilization. Recombinant PLCζ has the ability to trigger Ca2+ oscillations when expressed in eggs, but it is not...
