Degenerative spermatocyte, a novel gene encoding a transmembrane protein required for the initiation of meiosis in Drosophila spermatogenesis.

Molecular & general genetics : MGG - 27 Nov 1996

Endo K, Akiyama T, Kobayashi S, Okada M

Abstract excerpt

We have identified a novel Drosophila gene, degenerative spermatocyte (des), that may be required for the initiation of meiosis in spermatogenesis. In des mutant testes, the primary spermatocytes become mature in size but degenerate without initiating meiotic chromosome condensation in their nucl...
