The Role of Nanos in Germ Granules—Putative Posttranscriptional Regulation Hubs in Germ Cell Specification and Development Across Species

2024-11-22

Abstract excerpt

Nanos, initially identified in Drosophila melanogaster (fly) as a morphogen essential for body patterning and germ cell development, is a highly conserved RNA-binding protein critical for germ cell formation across species. Nanos dysfunction leads to infertility from flies to humans. While Drosophila has a single nanos gene, paralogs (nanos1-3) exist in species like Danio rerio (zebrafish), Caenorhabditis elegans...
