Discovery in Silico and Characterization in Vitro of Novel Genes Exclusively Expressed in the Mouse Epididymis
19 Aug 2003
Abstract excerpt
Epididymal proteins interact with sperm during their passage through the epididymis and thus contribute to the maturation and fertilizing capacity of the spermatozoa. In the present study we have discovered five novel epididymis-specific genes through in silico analysis of expressed sequence tags (ESTs) at the UniGene library collection. The strategy used is a powerful way to discover novel epididymis-specific...
