摘要: This study was designed to determine whether dam nutrition during mid latepregnancy influences birthweight responses from pregnancy shearing.Romney-cross ewes were either shorn pregnancy(n = 68) or left unshorn (n= 66). Ewes offered a maintenance level of feed (a ofnutrition that enabled the maintain conceptus-free liveweight) aed apparenthomogeneity by using various biochemical fractionation procedures, such assolubilization with Triton X-100, sephadex gel filtration chromatography,concanavalin A–sepharose affinity chromatography anddiethylaminoethyl–cellulose ion-exchange chromatography. The isolatedPPase has molecular mass approximately 36 kDa and an isoelectric point of5.95. Sperm surface topography enzyme investigated usingfluorescein isothiocyanate-conjugated antibody purified PPase. Theimmunofluorescent studies have demonstrated isolated PPase islocalized on external viable sperm. Immunocytochemical studiesalso revealed marked topographical alteration ecto-PPase duringepididymal transit male gametes. Immunoreactivity observed all overthe caput sperm, but restricted primarily anterior tipof head in corpus sperm posterior part caudasperm cells. maturation-dependent decrease activity alsoconfi
