Abstract
Anionic sites of rat epididymal spermatozoa were measured at pH 7.4 using tritiated polycationized ferritin. The spermatozoa from the caput region had 1.25 +/- 0.06 X 10(6) anionic sites per cell and a binding constant of 1.26 +/- 0.01 X 10(6) M-1. Spermatozoa from the cauda region had 1.50 +/- 0.09 X 10(6) anionic sites per cell and a binding constant of 4.84 +/- 0.82 X 10(6) M-1. The values were mean +/- s.d. The anionic sites were partly sensitive to treatments with neuraminidase, trypsin and Triton X-100.
