Conversion of somatic sex identity in the testis induces female-specific cellular behaviors in the soma and early oocyte specification in the germline
2024-11-03
Abstract excerpt
Establishment and maintenance of cellular sex identity is essential for reproduction. Critically, the sex identity of somatic and germline cells must correspond for sperm or oocytes to be produced, with mismatched identity causing infertility in all organisms from flies to humans. In the Drosophila testis, Chronologically inappropriate morphogenesis (Chinmo) is required for maintenance of adult male somatic ident...
