Abstract excerpt
GATA binding protein 4 (GATA4) is a typical transcription binding factor, and its main functions include regulating the proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis of ovarian granulosa cells, promoting spermatogenesis and sex differentiation, implying that this gene have possibly roles in animal reproduction.
