Germ cell-intrinsic requirement for the homeodomain transcription factor PKnox1/Prep1 in adult spermatogenesis.

PKnox1 (also known as Prep1) belongs to the TALE family of homeodomain transcription factors that are critical for regulating growth and differentiation during embryonic and postnatal development in vertebrates. We demonstrate here that PKnox1 is required for adult spermatogenesis in a germ cell-int...
