High impact information on dazl

  • We also found novel localization patterns for zDazl and brul mRNAs along the cleavage planes [1].
  • Here we report that the germ plasm RNAs vasa, nanos1, and dazl co-localize with the mitochondrial cloud (MC) and are transported to the vegetal cortex during early oogenesis [2].
  • The germ plasm includes maternal mRNAs from the germline-specific genes such as vasa and nanos1, and vegetally localized dazl RNA is also incorporated into the germ plasm [2].
  • RESULTS: Using in vitro selection and UV-crosslinking experiments, we identified the sequence 'GUUC' as the target RNA sequence of zebrafish DAZ-like protein (zDAZL) [3].
  • In transfection experiments, zDAZL protein activated translation in a manner dependent on the binding sequence in the 3'UTR of the Drosophila twine gene or zDazl gene [3].
