It has been shown to be expressed in the nervous system during development and during specific stages in maturing germ cells of the ovary and testis in the adult, and has probable roles in gametogenesis, neurogenesis, and normal embryonic development during gastrulation (1,2). Inactivation of GCNF in mouse results in abnormal posterior development, impaired midbrain development, insufficient closure of the neural tube, and eventual embryonic death (3). GCNF has been shown to be a repressor of OCT-4 and of the protamine genes (4,5) and plays a critical role in the control of gene expression during embryogenesis and spermatogenesis (2,6).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nCT150; GCNF; GCNF1; Germ cell nuclear factor; germ cell nuclear factor variant 1; hGCNF; hRTR; NR61; NR6A1; Nuclear receptor subfamily 6 group A member 1; nuclear receptor subfamily 6, group A, member 1; retinoic acid receptor-related testis-associated receptor; Retinoid receptor-related testis-specific receptor; RTR\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 50\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799807774889,"sku":"5417S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-5417s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
