A human homologue of mouse Mater, a maternal effect gene essential for early embryonic development
1 Apr 2002
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mater is a maternal effect gene required for early embryonic development in mice, and its protein serves as an autoantigen in a mouse model of autoimmune premature ovarian failure. METHODS: Human MATER cDNA was cloned by PCR techniques. The mRNA and protein were determined using hybridization and immunodetection respectively. The cDNA and protein sequences were analysed using bioinformatics software....
