Meics, a novel zinc-finger protein which relocates from nuclei to the central meiotic spindle during Drosophila spermatogenesis

A Drosophila gene encoding a novel zinc-finger protein, Meics, was cloned using a monoclonal antibody. The predicted amino acid sequence contains 12 zinc-finger motifs of the C 2H 2-type. During spermatogenesis, Meics distributes intranuclearly at pre- and post-meiotic stages whereas it relocates to...

Zusammenfassung:A Drosophila gene encoding a novel zinc-finger protein, Meics, was cloned using a monoclonal antibody. The predicted amino acid sequence contains 12 zinc-finger motifs of the C 2H 2-type. During spermatogenesis, Meics distributes intranuclearly at pre- and post-meiotic stages whereas it relocates to central-spindle microtubules at both meiotic divisions.
