The POLO kinase is required at multiple stages during spermatogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster.

Chromosoma - 1 Dec 1998

Herrmann S, Amorim I, Sunkel C E

Abstract excerpt

The polo gene of Drosophila melanogaster is the founding member of the polo-like kinase family which is conserved among eukaryotes. POLO has been implicated in the organisation and function of the mitotic apparatus. Furthermore, POLO has been shown to be required for normal spermatogenesis. To characterize further the role of POLO in spermatogenesis, polo mutants were analysed by immunostaining with specific...
