UniProt data
UniProt name: ZP3_HUMAN (P21754)
Gene name: ZP3; Synonyms=ZP3A, ZP3B, ZPC
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: The mammalian zona pellucida, which mediates species- specific sperm binding, induction of the acrosome reaction and prevents post-fertilization polyspermy, is composed of three to four glycoproteins, ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4. ZP3 is essential for sperm binding and zona matrix formation.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P48833}; Single-pass type I membrane protein {ECO:0000255}.
Transmembrane domains:
- 388-408, 21 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 424 AA
