RNA in spermatozoa: implications for the alternative haploid genome

1 Jun 1997

Abstract excerpt

The presence of specific messenger RNAs in the nuclei of mature mammalian spermatozoa has been demonstrated by several independent laboratories. Others have suggested that various polymerases may also be active in mature spermatozoa. This has led to the notion that the 'sleeping' genome may not be so quiescent after all. The alternate use of somatic-like nucleosomal and haploid protamine packaging structures to...
