A mammalian germ cell-specific RNA-binding protein interacts with ubiquitously expressed proteins involved in splice site selectionD J Elliott
Medical Research Council Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Crewe Road, Edinburgh EH4 2XU, Scotland
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 97:5717-22. 2000..Our results suggest that RBM protein is an evolutionarily conserved mammalian splicing regulator which operates as a germ cell-specific cofactor for more ubiquitously expressed pre-mRNA splicing activators...

Histol Histopathol 15:239-49. 2000..In this review I suggest that one important factor is the ratio of proteins in different nuclear compartments, which might be established in a cell type specific fashion...
An evolutionarily conserved germ cell-specific hnRNP is encoded by a retrotransposed geneD J Elliott
MRC Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Crewe Road, Edinburgh EH4 2XU, UK

Dynamic changes in the subnuclear organisation of pre-mRNA splicing proteins and RBM during human germ cell developmentD J Elliott
Medical Research Council Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, Scotland
J Cell Sci 111:1255-65. 1998..These results suggest dynamic and possibly multiple functions for RBM in germ cell development...
The molecular genetics of male infertilityD J Elliott
MRC Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UK
Bioessays 19:801-9. 1997..These studies have shown that genes in a number of different pathways are essential for normal spermatogenesis, and also provide putative models of human infertility...
Expression of RBM in the nuclei of human germ cells is dependent on a critical region of the Y chromosome long armD J Elliott
Medical Research Council Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, Scotland
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 94:3848-53. 1997..In the absence of detectable RBM expression we see stages of germ cell development up to early meiosis, but not past this point into the haploid phase of spermatogenesis...
An RBM homologue maps to the mouse Y chromosome and is expressed in germ cellsD J Elliott
MRC Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UK
Hum Mol Genet 5:869-74. 1996..p.p. which is the time at which the Y chromosome condenses during meiotic prophase. These results suggest that Rbm is functionally involved in germline RNA metabolism...
Understanding the genes involved in spermatogenesis: a progress reportH J Cooke
Medical Research Council, Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, Scotland
Fertil Steril 69:989-95. 1998..To review the current literature on genes known to affect fertility in the human and mouse...
RBMY genes and AZFb deletionsD J Elliott
MRC Human Genetics Unit, Western General Hospital, Edinburgh, UK
J Endocrinol Invest 23:652-8. 2000..These findings imply that important pre-mRNA processing pathways might be disrupted in the germ cells of AZFb men...
RBMY, a probable human spermatogenesis factor, and other hnRNP G proteins interact with Tra2beta and affect splicingJ P Venables
Department of Biochemistry, University of Leicester, University Road, Leicester LE1 7RH, UK
Hum Mol Genet 9:685-94. 2000..The RNA-binding domain of RBM affected 5' splice site selection. We conclude that the hnRNP G family of proteins is involved in pre-mRNA splicing and infer that RBM may be involved in Tra2beta-dependent splicing in spermatocytes...
The tumour-suppressor protein ASPP1 is nuclear in human germ cells and can modulate ratios of CD44 exon V5 spliced isoforms in vivoJ K Thornton
Institute of Human Genetics, University of Newcastle, International Centre for Life, Central Parkway, Newcastle, UK

T-STAR/ETOILE: a novel relative of SAM68 that interacts with an RNA-binding protein implicated in spermatogenesisJ P Venables
Department of Biochemistry, University of Leicester, UK
Hum Mol Genet 8:959-69. 1999..RBM and other hnRNP G family members are candidate downstream targets for regulation by T-STAR/ETOILE and SAM68...
Mouse homologues of the human AZF candidate gene RBM are expressed in spermatogonia and spermatids, and map to a Y chromosome deletion interval associated with a high incidence of sperm abnormalitiesS K Mahadevaiah
Laboratory of Developmental Genetics, National Institute for Medical Research, The Ridgeway, Mill Hill, London NW7 1AA, UK
Hum Mol Genet 7:715-27. 1998..In man, deletion of the functional copies of RBM is associated with meiotic arrest rather than sperm anomalies; however, the different effects of deletion are consistent with the differences in expression between the two species...
Does Rbmy have a role in sperm development in mice?M Szot
Division of Developmental Genetics, MRC National Institute for Medical Research, London, UK
Cytogenet Genome Res 103:330-6. 2003..The lack of RBMY was confirmed by western blotting of lysates from purified round spermatids and elongating spermatids. The implications of these results for the proposed role for RBMY in sperm development are discussed...
Mutations at the mitochondrial DNA polymerase (POLG) locus associated with male infertilityA T Rovio
Ancobio Ltd, Glasgow, Scotland
Nat Genet 29:261-2. 2001..Analysis of POLG genotypes in different populations identified an association between absence of the common, ten-repeat allele and male infertility typified by a range of sperm quality defects but excluding azoospermia...
