Molecular biomarkers that can assess sperm acrosome status are very useful for evaluating sperm quality in the field of assisted reproductive technology. In this review, we introduce and discuss the localization and function of acrosomal proteins that have been well studied. Journal databases were searched using keywords, including “human acrosome”, “localization”, “fertilization-related protein”, “acrosomal membrane”, “acrosomal matrix”, “acrosome reaction”, “knockout mouse”, and “acrosome marker”.
