Hmga1/Hmga2 double knock-out mice display a “superpygmy” phenotype
The HMGA1 and HMGA2 genes code for proteins belonging to the High Mobility Group A family. Several genes are negatively or positively regulated by both these proteins, but a number of genes are specifically regulated by only one of them. Indeed, knock-out of the Hmga1 and Hmga2 genes leads to different phenotypes: cardiac hypertrophy and type 2 diabetes in the former case, and a large reduction...
متن کاملThe role of Musashi protein in spermatogenesis and male infertility
Background: Inactivation of transcription occurs during two phases of spermatogenesis. First, in spermatocytes entering the primary meiosis and the second in round and elongating spermatids. These stages of inactivated transcription demand extensive regulation of translation. Therefore, presence of the control on gene expression during spermatogenesis seems essential. In the cases that post-tra...
متن کاملCharacterization and expression of mouse Cdc50c during spermatogenesis.
Cdc50p is a transmembrane protein required for polarized growth in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The knowledge on physiological functions of its mammalian homologs, however, is limited. Using database analysis, we identified one mouse testis expressed sequence tag, named Cdc50c, encoding a previously uncharacterized homolog of Cdc50p. Similar to yeast Cdc50p, the putative Cdc50c protein contains th...
متن کاملHeat-Shock Protein Gene Expression during Spermatogenesis'
We have examined the expression and function of heat shock transcription factor 2 (HSF2) in spermatogenic cells of mouse testis. The results of in situ RNA hybridization analysis, RNA filter hybridization, and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis indicate that HSF2 mRNA expression in testis is subject to developmental and cell type-dependent, as well as stage-depend...
متن کاملRates of protein evolution are positively correlated with developmental timing of expression during mouse spermatogenesis.
Male reproductive genes often evolve very rapidly, and sexual selection is thought to be a primary force driving this divergence. We investigated the molecular evolution of 987 genes expressed at different times during mouse spermatogenesis to determine if the rate of evolution and the intensity of positive selection vary across stages of male gamete development. Using mouse-rat orthologs, we f...
