Disease relevance of Dppa2

Two of these genes were developmental pluripotency-associated gene 2 (Dppa2) and Dppa4, which we show are closely linked genes encoding putative nuclear SAP domain proteins expressed in human and mouse pluripotent stem cells and germ cell tumor-derived embryonal carcinoma cells [1].

High impact information on Dppa2

Dppa2 and Dppa4 Are Closely Linked SAP Motif Genes Restricted to Pluripotent Cells and the Germ Line [1].
After gastrulation, Dppa2 and Dppa4 are expressed only in the developing germ line, showing that these genes mark cells of the pluripotent cycle [1].
