Abstract The egg cytoplasm undergoes large-scale remodeling after fertilization. Here, we reveal that the germ granule component, HERD-1, is involved in selective degradation of maternal plasma membrane proteins after fertilization in Caenorhabditis elegans. HERD-1 is specifically expressed in the germline and mainly localized in a subtype of germ granules, Z granules.

Abstract In many sexually reproducing organisms, oocytes are fundamentally fertilized with one sperm. In Caenorhabditis elegans, chitin layer formation after fertilization by the EGG complex is one of the mechanisms of polyspermy block, but other mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we demonstrate that MARC-3, a membrane-associated RING-CH-type ubiquitin ligase that localizes to the plasma membrane and cortical puncta in oocytes, is involved in fast polyspermy block.
