Abstract

Fertilization is an event that involves highly dynamic intra- and intercellular processes which enable the merger of two gametes with the aim to ultimately form a new organism. Preparative changes are required in both gametes prior to fertilization since freshly ejaculated spermatozoa and germinal vesicle (GV) stage arrested oocytes are not capable to form a zygote.
