<h4>Background</h4>We had previously reported that the Suppression Subtractive Hybridization (SSH) approach was relevant for the isolation of new mammalian genes involved in oogenesis and early follicle development. Some of these transcripts might be potential new oocyte and granulosa cell markers. We have now characterized one of them, named TOPAZ1 for the Testis and Ovary-specific PAZ domain gene.<h4>Principal findings</h4>Sheep and mouse TOPAZ1 mRNA have 4,803 bp and 4,962 bp open reading fra ...[more]
