Summary
This antibody recognizes a mouse testicular germ cell-specific antigen. In adult tissues, bands of 60-100 kDa proteins are detected only in the testis by Western blotting analysis with this antibody. The signals are observed in male and female embryos after embryonic day 12.5. The signal in male is detected during development of germ cells and also after birth, but the signal in female disappears by 5 days after birth. The antigen is localized only in the nuclear fraction of testicular germ cells and this antibody can be used for immunohistochemical staining of testicular germ cells.
