High impact information on Ddx3x

  • In situ hybridization revealed that Ddx3x mRNA was expressed in almost every cell in mouse testis, suggesting that Ddx3x is involved in spermatogenesis [1].
  • ERH is expressed in oocytes and is a ubiquitous mRNA in the 9 days-post-conception embryo, and at later stages of development shows a more restricted pattern of expression in brain and kidney [2].
  • Here we describe the isolation and characterization of an embryonic RNA helicase gene, ERH, which maps to mouse chromosome 1 and encodes a new member of the DEAD box family of proteins [2].
  • Although the level of expression of Dby was much lower than its X chromosome homolog, Ddx3 (also known as Ddx3x) in all samples examined, the pattern of expression of the 2 genes was comparable [3].
