Figure 9From: Oocyte activation and phospholipase C zeta (PLCζ): diagnostic and therapeutic implications for assisted reproductive technologyRepresentative Ca2+oscillation profiles of mouse oocytes injected with lysates obtained from HEK293T cells transfected with PLCζ isoforms. Baseline values for all Ca2+ traces are stacked to facilitate visualization of the responses. Empty vector: Ca2+ trace obtained from injection of lysates obtained from HEK293T cells transfected with vector without PLCζ; PLCζH398P: Ca2+ trace obtained from injection of lysates obtained from HEK293T cells transfected with the H398P isoform of PLCζ; PLCζWT: Ca2+ trace obtained from injection of lysates obtained from HEK293T cells transfected with wild type PLCζ; CHX: cyclohexamide (an inhibitor of RNA synthesis).
