- Description
- daz-1 encodes a protein containing an RNA recognition motif that is required for the progression of meiosis during oogenesis; DAZ-1 is expressed in the germline, and expression levels peak in the proximal pachytene region; cpb-3(bt17);daz-1(tj3) hermaphrodites have a synthetic phenotype of total sterility and masculinization; DAZ-1 colocalizes with CPB-3 in vivo, coimmunoprecipitates with CPB-3, and binds CPB-3 in two-hybrid assays.
