29 Oct 2014
Abstract excerpt
STUDY QUESTION: What is the subcellular localization in human oocytes and preimplantation embryos, of the two maternal-effect proteins, NLRP7 and KHDC3L, responsible for recurrent hydatidiform moles (RHMs)? SUMMARY ANSWER: NLRP7 and KHDC3L localize to the oocyte cytoskeleton and are polar and absent from the cell-to-cell contact region in early preimplantation embryos. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY: NLRP7 and KHDC3L...
