摘要：

At fertilization, the mammalian sperm transmits the haploid paternal genome. However, it also carries a variety of other factors into the oocyte that have the potential to affect embryo development. These include mRNAs left over from spermatogenesis, mitochondria with their own DNA, cytoskeletal and contractile elements, remnants of the sperm plasma membrane and, in many species, the sperm centriole. While most of these elements are eliminated, some play essential roles in early embryogenesis. In this review, I summarize the latest information on these phenomena and indicate some of the implications for animal biotechnology and, in particular, cloning. (C) 2001 by Elsevier Science Inc.
