Results
Specimen 1B,D: postnatal adult (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: spermatocyte Present Single cells 1D , 1B Spermatogonia, preleptotene, and leptotene spermatocytes all express high levels of nuclear Dnmt1, while pachytene spermatocytes are not detectably stained.
TS28: spermatogonium Present Single cells 1D , 1B Spermatogonia, preleptotene, and leptotene spermatocytes all express high levels of nuclear Dnmt1, while pachytene spermatocytes are not detectably stained.

Specimen 2A: postnatal newborn (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS27: oocyte Absent 2A Non-growing oocytes show no sign of expression.
TS27: ovary Present Single cells 2A Neighboring supporting cells show significant staining.

Specimen 2B,C: postnatal day 7 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: oocyte Present Single cells 2B , 2C Growing occytes stain intensely in both nucleus and cytoplasm.

Specimen 2D,E: postnatal day 70 (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS28: oocyte Present Regionally restricted 2E , 2D Late-stage dictyate occytes in Graafian follicles show very intense and uniform cytoplasmic staining. Optical sections show that Dnmt1 is associated with the oocyte cortex in an ovulated oocyte arrested in metaphase of meiosis II.
