| Type | Family |
| Description | This family contains a number of zona-pellucida-binding proteins that seem to be restricted to mammals. These are sperm proteins that bind to the 90kDa family of zona pellucida glycoproteins in a calcium-dependent manner [ ]. These represent some of the specific molecules that mediate the first steps of gamete interaction, allowing fertilisation to occur []. |
