보효소고분자화를 위한 담체로서 $\beta$ - casein에 NAD$/^+$ 를 효소법으로 고정화하였다. 21개의 glutamine 잔기를 함유하는 수용성고분자물질로서 transglutaminase 촉매작용에 의해 NAD$/^+$analog의 amino기와 r-glutamylamine bond를 형성하여 결합하였다. $\beta$-Casein은 $/_a_s_1+$(1분자내에 15개의 glutamine잔기를 함유)에 비하여 효과적인 고정화담체이었으며 8-(6-amino hexyl) aminonicotinamide ade-nine dinucleotide는 N$^6$-[(6-aminohexyl)-carba-moylmethy]-NAD$^+$에 비하여 고정화수율이 높았다. 고정화에 있어 NAN$_3$의 첨가는 필수적이었다. 고정화 NAD$^+$ Km치는 NAD$^+$또는 NAD$^+$analog와 비슷하였으나 max.rate는 고정화하므로써 31% 감소되었다. 그러나 고정화하므로써 NAD$^+$의 alkaline pH에서의 안정성은 증대되었으며, 고정화 보효소를 칼슘침전하여 분리회수하였을 경우에도 보효소 활성을 유지, NAD$^+$형 (산화형)과 NADH형(환원형)으로 상호전환되므로써 재생되었다.

Effects of xanthine (X), xanthine oxidase (XO), and catalase (C), $H_2O_2$, and carbohydrates on sperm capacitation, acrosome reaction, and fertilizing ability in vitro were examined. Glucose alone, but not fructose, supported the maximum rate of sperm capacitation and acrosome reaction. However, in the combination of X, XO, and C (XXOC) or $H_2O_2$, fructose alone also supported maximum capacitation, acrosome reaction, and fertilization. Either insufficient or excessive amounts of $H_2O_2$ decreased sperm capacitation and the acrosome reaction. In order to understand how glucose generates $H_2O_2$ or other reactive oxygen species in sperm cells, 6-aminonicotinamide, an inhibitor of the pentose-phosphate pathway (PPP), and apocynin, an inhibitor of NADPH oxidase, were added to sperm suspensions in glucose-containing medium. Results appeared that sperm capacitation, acrosome reaction, and fertilization were consequently inhibited by either one of these compounds. These inhibitory effects were nullified by addition of XXOC. These results support the hypothesis that glucose, in addition to being a substrate for glycolysis, facilitates sperm capacitation and the acrosome reaction by generating reactive oxygen species through G-6-P dehydrogenase and NADPH oxidase.
