ZP1

The zona pellucida is an extracellular matrix that surrounds the oocyte and early embryo. It is composed primarily of three or four glycoproteins with various functions during fertilization and preimplantation development. The protein encoded by this gene ensures the structural integrity of the zona pellucida. Mutations in this gene are a cause of oocyte maturation defect and infertility.
Full Name
zona pellucida glycoprotein 1
Function
Component of the zona pellucida, an extracellular matrix surrounding oocytes which mediates sperm binding, induction of the acrosome reaction and prevents post-fertilization polyspermy. The zona pellucida is composed of 3 to 4 glycoproteins, ZP1, ZP2, ZP3, and ZP4. ZP1 ensures the structural integrity of the zona pellucida.

Involvement in disease
Oocyte maturation defect 1 (OOMD1):
An infertility disorder caused by defective oocyte maturation that results in abnormal eggs lacking a zona pellucida. Affected females have normal menstrual cycles and sex hormone levels, no obstruction in the fallopian tubes or abnormalities of the uterus or adnexa.
