DGCR8 Localizes to the Nucleus as well as Cytoplasmic Structures in Mammalian Spermatogenic Cells and Epididymal Sperm
Figure 6
Localization of DGCR8 in the nuclei of spermatogenic cells by IEM. Data obtained with antibody from ProteinTech. Dashed line indicates nuclear envelope. (a) A nucleus of a late pachytene spermatocyte of mouse. Gold labeling is associated with euchromatin near heterochromatin but not with synaptonemmal complex (*). (b) Nucleoplasm of a step 7 spermatid of rat. An aggregate of small particles is labeled with gold particles but the other area not. (c) Nucleoplasm of a step 10 spermatid of rat. An aggregate of particles is labeled but the other area is not. Bar = 1 μm for (a) and 0.5 μm for (b) and (c).
