Dppa3 / Pgc7 / stellais a maternal factor and is not required for germ cell specification in mice

Background: In mice, germ cells are specified through signalling between layers of cells comprising the primitive embryo. The function of Dppa3 (also known as Pgc7 or stella), a gene expressed in primordial germ cells at the time of their emergence in gastrulating embryos, is unknown, but a recent s...
