The RNA-binding protein DAZL functions as repressor and activator of mRNA translation during oocyte maturation
13 Mar 2020
Abstract excerpt
Deleted in azoospermia-like (DAZL) is an RNA-binding protein critical for gamete development. In full-grown oocytes, the DAZL protein increases 4-fold during reentry into the meiotic cell cycle. Here, we have investigated the functional significance of this accumulation at a genome-wide level. Depletion of DAZL causes a block in maturation and widespread disruption in the pattern of ribosome loading on maternal...
