Assay
Reference: J:277128 Shiromoto Y, et al., GPAT2 is required for piRNA biogenesis, transposon silencing, and maintenance of spermatogonia in mice. Biol Reprod. 2019 Jul 1;101(1):248-256
Assay type: Immunohistochemistry
MGI Accession ID: MGI:7619073
Gene symbol: Piwil4
Gene name: piwi-like RNA-mediated gene silencing 4
Antibody: Anti-Miwi2 (25D11)
Detection system: Secondary antibody coupled to Alexa Fluor
Results
Specimen 3C +/delta: embryonic day 16.5; Gpat2tm1.1Nkn/Gpat2+ (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: germ cell of testis Present Regionally restricted 3C Piwil4 +/delta Secondary piRNAs are incorporated into PIWIL4, and the resultant PIWIL4-piRNA complexes are transferred into the nucleus.

Specimen 3C delta/delta: embryonic day 16.5; Gpat2tm1.1Nkn/Gpat2tm1.1Nkn (more )
Structure Level Pattern Image Note
TS24: germ cell of testis Present Regionally restricted 3C Piwil4 delta/delta PIWIL4 proteins that do not bind to piRNAs cannot enter the nucleus. PIWIL4 was not detectable in the nucleus of Gpat2delta/delta prospermatogonia.
