Transient recovery from trypsin-caused reduction in fertilizability of sea urchin eggs.

???displayArticle.abstract???
The effect of trypsin on the fertilizability of sea urchin eggs was studied withParacentrotus lividus andPseudocentrotus depressus. The main effects were two reductions of fertilizability, with a transient increase intervening. The first decrease was probably caused by degradation of sperm-binding sites at the vitelline sheet and the second by degradation of binding sites on the plasma membrane.
