Description The p~s~~oI~p~d~ and their fatty acids of the inner and outer plasma membrane feaBets of the rn~i~in~ goat cap&-, corpusand caud~-cp~~~rna~ ~~er~~ozoa were ana&zed by treating the intact s~e~~to~a with phospbo~pas~ C and ~K~~~oben~~ne sulphonate, The inner and outer membrane showed marked differences in the pho~pholipjd corn~s~t~o~ at all stages of cp~didymal sperm ma~ra~o~. The outer memlxm~ was rich in ~~lospbat~~ic~o~~~ (PC> and sp~~~~~e~o fSPf_f) whereas the inner leaflet was dominated by phosphatidylecb~olamine (FE& ~tbougb the ratio of FE/ PC in the inner rnembr~~ was similar in both the mature cauda sperm and the ~rnrna~~rec ap& sperm, it decreased s~~~~~c~t~~in sperm ~~dcrgoi~ mat~lration in the corpus-epididymis. The dis~~~b~tio~o f the saturated and ~sat~~ated fatty acids in the phospbo~~p~df ractions of both the membrane Leaflets undereat profound allocations during the ~~idid~~l ~~~t~~ation. The data demonstrate as~rne~ of phosphol~~ids and their fatty acids in the sperm inner and outer plasma rnernb~a~~s and this lipid asymmetry is greatly altered during ~~idid~a~ maturity of the male gametes
