Spermatogenesis of mice lacking CK2alpha': failure of germ cell survival and characteristic modifications of the spermatid nucleus.

Molecular reproduction and development - 1 Oct 2003

Escalier Denise, Silvius Derek, Xu Xin

Abstract excerpt

Csnk2a2 encodes the CK2alpha'catalytic subunit of CK2 that is predominantly expressed in testis. Male mice in which Csnk2a2 has been disrupted were infertile and displayed oligozoospermia with an abnormal shape of the spermatid nucleus. In this study, Csnk2a2 null testes revealed extensive germ c...
