Green fluorescence protein driven by the NaK-ATPase α4 isoform promoter is expressed only in male germ cells of mouse testis

摘要

PurposeExpression of the Na,K-ATPase α4 isoform is required for sperm motility and fertility and is controlled by the Atp1a4 promoter. Here, we have investigated the specific tissue, cell type and developmental regulation of expression mediated by the Atp1a4 promoter.
