Sdmg1 is a conserved transmembrane protein associated with germ cell sex determination and germline-soma interactions in mice
6 Mar 2008
Abstract excerpt
In mammals, the supporting cell lineage in an embryonic gonad communicates the sex-determining decision to various sexually dimorphic cell types in the developing embryo, including the germ cells. However, the molecular nature of the sex-determining signals that pass from the supporting cells to the germ cells is not well understood. We have identified a conserved transmembrane protein, Sdmg1, owing to its...
