Gadd45γ and Map3k4 Interactions Regulate Mouse Testis Determination via p38 MAPK-Mediated Control of Sry Expression
25 Oct 2012
Abstract excerpt
Loss of the kinase MAP3K4 causes mouse embryonic gonadal sex reversal due to reduced expression of the testis-determining gene, Sry. However, because of widespread expression of MAP3K4, the cellular basis of this misregulation was unclear. Here, we show that mice lacking Gadd45γ also exhibit XY gonadal sex reversal caused by disruption to Sry expression. Gadd45γ is expressed in a dynamic fashion in somatic cells...
