AbstractPrevious studies showed that zona binding inhibitory factor-1 (ZIF-1) was the glycoprotein mainly responsible for the spermatozoa zona binding inhibitory activity of human follicular fluid. ZIF-1 has a number of properties similar to glycodelin-A. A binding kinetics experiment in the present study demonstrated the presence of two binding sites of ZIF-1 on human spermatozoa. These binding sites were saturable, reversible, and bound to 125I-ZIF-1 in a time-, concentration-, and temperature-dependent manner. Glycodelin-A shared one common binding site with ZIF-1 on spermatozoa, and it could displace only 70% of the 125I-ZIF-1 bound on human spermatozoa. ZIF-1 and glycodelin-A formed complexes with the soluble extract of human spermatozoa. Coincubation of solubilized zona pellucida proteins reduced the binding of ZIF-1 to two complexes of the extract, suggesting that the ZIF-1 binding sites and zona pellucida protein receptors on human spermatozoa were closely related. ZIF-1, but not glycodelin-A, significantly sup-pressed progesterone-induced acrosome reaction of human spermatozoa. The carbohydrate moieties derived from ZIF-1 reduced the binding of native ZIF-1 on human spermatozoa as well as the zona binding inhibitory activity of the glycoprotein, although the intensity of the effects are lower when compared with the native protein. These effects are not due to the action of the molecules on the motility, viability, and acrosomal status of the treated spermatozoa. Deglycosylated ZIF-1 had no inhibitory effect on both ZIF-1 binding and zona binding capacity of spermatozoa. We concluded that the carbohydrate part of ZIF-1 was critical for the functioning of the glycoprotein.
