Wnt4 is required for proper male as well as female sexual development.
Genes previously implicated in mammalian sexual development have either a male- or female-specific role. The signaling molecule WNT4 has been shown to be important in female sexual development. Lack of Wnt4 gives rise to masculinization of the XX gonad and we showed previously that the role of WNT4 was to inhibit endothelial and steroidogenic cell migration into the developing ovary. Here we sh...
متن کاملEXTENSIN18 is required for full male fertility as well as normal vegetative growth in Arabidopsis
EXTENSINS (EXTs) are a 65-member subfamily of hydroxyproline-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs) of which 20 putatively form crosslinking networks in the cell wall. These 20 classical EXTs are involved at the start of new wall assembly as evidenced by a requirement for EXT3 during cytokinesis, and the ability of some EXTs to polymerize in vitro into dendritic patterns. EXT3 was previously shown to form ...
متن کاملMouse MutS-like protein Msh5 is required for proper chromosome synapsis in male and female meiosis.
Members of the mammalian mismatch repair protein family of MutS and MutL homologs have been implicated in postreplicative mismatch correction and chromosome interactions during meiotic recombination. Here we demonstrate that mice carrying a disruption in MutS homolog Msh5 show a meiotic defect, leading to male and female sterility. Histological and cytological examination of prophase I stages i...
متن کاملFemale presence is required for male sexual maturity in the nematode Steinernema longicaudum
following nest exits. Every 2 to 3 days, nest position was changed in the horizontal plane on a 4 m long platform to make positional cues unreliable. The choice criterion for a returning bee was defined as the first colour landmark that the bee hovered in front of, or landed on. Thus, if the bee chose the training colour landmark, the response was considered correct. Data from all bees were poo...
متن کاملSoftware Tutors Help Female Students Learn Programming Concepts Just as Well as Male Students
Several studies suggest a significant difference between women and men in their attitude towards programming as well as their attitude towards interacting with computers. So, it is reasonable to question whether women learn computer programming concepts as well as men do using software tutors. In order to answer this question, we analyzed data from the evaluation of three programming tutors use...
