High impact information on Nanos1

  • The mouse Nanos proteins, Nanos2 and Nanos3, are required for germ cell development and share a highly conserved zinc-finger domain [1].
  • Functional redundancy among Nanos proteins and a distinct role of Nanos2 during male germ cell development [1].
  • nanos1: a mouse nanos gene expressed in the central nervous system is dispensable for normal development [2].
  • In Drosophila, maternally supplied Nanos functions in the migration of primordial germ cells (PGCs) into the gonad; in mice, zygotic genes are involved instead [3].
 

Biological context of Nanos1

  • The nanos1 gene encodes an RNA-binding protein, which contains a putative zinc-finger motif that exhibits similarity with other nanos-class genes in vertebrates and invertebrates [2].
