<i>zif-1</i>translational repression defines a second, mutually exclusive OMA function in germline transcriptional repression
9 Sept 2010
Abstract excerpt
Specification of primordial germ cells requires global repression of transcription. In C. elegans, primordial germ cells are generated through four rounds of asymmetric divisions, starting from the zygote P0, each producing a transcriptionally repressed germline blastomere (P1-P4). Repression in P2-P4 requires PIE-1, which is provided maternally in oocytes and segregated to all germline blastomeres. We have shown...
