The following points highlight the two main processes which requires involvement of glycoproteins. The processes are: 1. Importance of Glycoproteins in Fertilization 2. Selectins Play Key Roles in Inflammation. Process # 1. Importance of Glycoproteins in Fertilization: (a) A sperm has to traverse the Zona Pellucida (ZP), a thick, transparent, non-cellular envelope that surrounds the oocyte to reach the plasma [...]
