Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
During the process of capacitation, spermatozoa go through a whole set of signaling cascade events in order to become fully competent at fertilizing the egg. An increase in sperm protein tyrosine phosphorylation has been described during this final maturational event in different animal species as well as in humans. Although the phosphotyrosine content of sperm protein is modulated by cAMP, Ca, BSA, oxygen derivatives, and cholesterol, no protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) nor the phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase (PTPase) directly involved in the control of the phosphotyrosine content of sperm protein has been identified. Therefore, the goal of the present study was to identify the tyrosine kinases putatively responsible for the increases in sperm protein phosphotyrosine content. In the present study, we show that the src-related tyrosine kinase c-yes is present in the head of human spermatozoa in both membranes and Triton X-100-insoluble extracts. Our hypothesis was that c-yes is a tyrosine kinase responsible for at least some of the capacitation-induced increase in protein tyrosine phosphorylation. When spermatozoa were previously incubated in the presence of 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine or 1,2-bis-(o-aminophenoxy)-ethane-N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid, treatments known to increase the phosphotyrosine content of human sperm proteins, an increase in the kinase activity of immunoprecipitated yes was measured using enolase as a substrate. These results suggest that cAMP activates while Ca inhibits human sperm c-yes kinase activity.
