General Information
Term sperm plasma membrane disassembly ID (Ontology) GO:0035045 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The gradual disintegration of the sperm plasma membrane following insemination. This process is seen in Drosophila after entry of the entire sperm, surrounded by its plasma membrane, into the egg.[ ISBN:0879694238 ]
Also Known As"sperm plasma membrane breakdown" ; "sperm plasma membrane catabolism" ; "sperm plasma membrane degradation"
