Despite extensive study of sperm motility, little is known of the mechanism of mammalian sperm hyperactivation. Here we describe a novel method for preparation of rodent sperm flagella and use it to show a correlation between tyrosine phosphorylation of flagellar proteins and hyperactivation of hamster sperm. When hyperactivation was produced by a 3.5-h incubation in a medium supporting capacitation, four major tyrosine-phosphorylated peptides of 90-, 80-, 62-, and 48-kDa mass were detected in flagellar extracts. Incubation with calyculin A, an inhibitor of protein phosphatases 1 and 2A, produced hyperactivation within 40 min but only a single 80-kDa phosphotyrosine-containing flagellar component. Conversely, incubation with inhibitors of either protein kinase A (H8) or protein tyrosine kinase (tyrphostin 47) prevented both hyperactivation and the production of tyrosine-phosphorylated flagellar peptides. These results indicate a strong correlation of hyperactivation with the tyrosine phosphorylation of sperm flagellar peptides, and they strongly implicate an 80-kDa component as a major mediator of the mechanism that produces hyperactivated motility of hamster sperm.
