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. [provided by RefSeq, May 2014]
Immunofluorescence analysis of Hela cells using ZP1 antibody (green). Blue: DAPI fluorescent DNA dye. Red: Actin filaments have been labeled with Omnimabs® 594-Phalloidin.Cells are fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde at room temperature for 20 minutes. Then, they are permeabilized with a PBS (OM750003) solution containing 0.1% Triton X-100(OM750021) at room temperature for 15 minutes. Subsequently, the cells are blocked with 10% non - immune goat serum(OM760028) at room temperature for 1 hour.The cells are incubated overnight at 4°C with the primary antibody diluted 1:100 in PBS. The secondary antibody, Omnimabs® 488 Goat Ant-Rabbit IgG(H&L) (Green,OM643486), is diluted at a ratio of 1:400 and incubated with the cells for 1 hour.Nuclear DNA is labeled with DAPI (Blue,OM643160). F-actin is stained with Omnimabs® 594-Phalloidin (Red,OM750007) diluted 1:100 for 30 minutes.
