AmiGO 2: Term Details for "fusion of sperm to egg plasma membrane involved in single fertilization" (GO:0007342)

Accession: GO:0007342
Name: fusion of sperm to egg plasma membrane involved in single fertilization
Ontology: biological_process
Synonyms: sperm-oocyte fusion
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: The binding and fusion of a sperm, with the plasma membrane of the oocyte as part of the process of single fertilization. In sperm with flagella, binding occurs at the posterior (post-acrosomal) region of the sperm head. Source: http://arbl.cvmbs.colostate.edu/hbooks/pathphys/reprod/fert/fert.html, GOC:dph, GOC:jl
