Abstract excerpt
Many genes crucial for male fertility are often predominantly or exclusively expressed in male germ cells. The analysis of mouse models has demonstrated the functional importance of peroxisomes in spermatogenesis. The CCDC33 protein has been reported to be a cancer/testis (CT) antigen. We found that mouse Ccdc33 is predominantly expressed in the testis and undergoes alternative splicing to produce at least 4...
