Tissue specificity:Testis-specific. Present in spermatocytes and round and early elongating spermatids. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16787967, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18694567}.
Induction:
Developmental stage:Present from 12.5 dpc, although at this stage, protein levels are low. In the male, from 12.5 until 14.5 cpc, it localizes to the cytoplasm of germ cells, but from 15.5-16.5 dpc, it localizes to the nucleus as well. In the female, it is cytoplasmic in germ cells throughout embryonic gonad development (at protein level). In testis, low levels are observed in the early stages of meiotic prophase I (leptonema to midpachynema). Starts to accumulate throughout the cytoplasm and in prominent perinuclear nuage in late pachytene and diplotene spermatocytes. Meiotic metaphases and secondary spermatocytes show a high level in the cytoplasm as well as in nuage. Present in the chromatoid body and in a second smaller nuage in round spermatids (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16787967}.
Protein families:Maelstrom family
