Abstract excerpt

Chromatin reorganisation is a major event towards the end of mammalian and Drosophila spermatogenesis. In Drosophila, we previously identified protamine A, protamine B and Mst77F as major chromatin components of the mature sperm. Here, an antibody against Mst77F reveals a dual expression pattern of Mst77F as a chromatin component and in association with microtubules during nuclear shaping. Spermatids of ms(3)nc3...
