Summary.

Proteins from the secretion of rat seminal vesicles were fractionated to yield (i) insoluble protein, (ii) basic proteins (soluble in the presence of urea) and (iii) neutral plus acidic proteins. The first two are necessary for the formation in vitro of a coagulum which is very similar to the copulatory plug. Collagenase-like peptidase from rat testis degrades both protein fractions and prevents coagulum formation.

Reproduction is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.

The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
