Abstract:KO and WT mice. 200 ml of each semen were used for total RNA extraction using the miRNeasy serum/plasma kit (Qiagen). RESULTS: Prmt5-and histone-associated protein Copr5 is highly expressed intestis and its depletion impacted on the maturation of spermatogonia to spermatids, although Copr5 KO animals were fertile. Extinction of Copr5 in mice testis leads to a down-regulation of the level of Miwi protein, as confirmed by western blot analyses and immunohistochemistry of WT and KO mice testis whole cell extracts… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
