Protamine lacking piscine spermatozoa are transcriptionally active
2021-11-06
Abstract excerpt
Transcriptional quiescence of post-meiotic spermatozoa associated with protamine-mediated chromatin condensation is widely recognized in animals. How sperm acquire the extratesticular maturational competence to move and fertilize the egg is therefore thought to occur via non-transcriptional mechanisms. Here, using transcriptional profiling during spermatozoon differentiation in a fish that does not condense chroma...
