Egg Activation

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! After the fusion of the sperm plasma membrane and the egg plasma membrane after fertilization, animal eggs go through a process called egg activation to prepare the egg for development.The sperm may trigger egg activation via the interaction between a sperm protein and an egg surface receptor. It is possible that a G protein receptor is activated by the sperm binding which activates a tyrosine kinase which then activates phospholipase C.
