High impact information on Degs1

  • Transcript levels of Des-2, but not Des-1, were considerably decreased in cultured keratinocytes from Arnt-null epidermis [1].
  • Based on these results, it is proposed that the products of Mdes and des have a phylogenetically conserved role in vertebrate and invertebrate spermatogenesis [2].
