what role(s) played by the Equatorial Segment Protein 1 (ESP1) during fertilization.
Solution
The structure of a spermatozoa consists of three parts. They are,
Acrosome is the elongated head region of the sperm containing 2/3rd of the nucleus. The
enzymes present in the acrosome are essential for the penetration of a sperm into a secondary

deficient in mice lacking Equatorial Segment Protein 1 (ESP1). This indicates that ESP1 is
necessary for the development of "fusion-competent sperm."
