Oocyte meiosis and early mitotic divisions in developing embryos rely on the timely production of cell cycle regulators and their clearance via proteasomal degradation. Ret Finger Protein-Like 4 (Rfpl4), encoding a RING finger-like protein with a B30.2 domain, was discovered during an in silico search for germ cell-specific genes. To study the expression and functions of RFPL4 protein, we performed immunolocalizations and used yeast two-hybrid and other protein-protein interaction assays. Immuno ...[more]
