WEE2 Is an Oocyte-Specific Meiosis Inhibitor in Rhesus Macaque Monkeys1

3 Mar 2010

Abstract excerpt

WEE1 homolog 2 (WEE2, also known as WEE1B) is a newly identified member of the WEE kinase family that is conserved from yeast to humans. The aim of the present study was to determine the spatiotemporal expression pattern and the function of WEE2 during oocyte maturation in a nonhuman primate species, the rhesus macaque. Among 11 macaque tissues examined, WEE2 transcript is predominantly expressed in the ovary and...
