Calspermin and Ca(2+)-calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV (CaMKIV) are two proteins encoded by the Camk4 gene. CaMKIV is found in multiple tissues, including brain, thymus, and testis, while calspe
To identify Dek-associated RNA in muscle stem cells during quiescence to activation transition, we used Dek antibody to immunoprecipitated Dek-associated RNA from fresh-isolated quiescent muscle stem
Active mtDNA elimination during spermatogenesis has emerged as a conserved mechanism ensuring the uniparental mitochondrial inheritance in animals. However, given the existence of post-fertilization p
BackgroundThe fish medaka is the first vertebrate capable of full spermatogenesis in vitro from self-renewing spermatogonial stem cells to motile test-tube sperm. Precise staging and molecular dissect
