DDX5 plays essential transcriptional and post-transcriptional roles in the maintenance and function of spermatogonia
Sustained sperm production is dependent on activity of undifferentiated spermatogonia. Here, the authors demonstrate an essential role for RNA helicase DDX5 in maintenance of spermatogonia in adults through control of gene transcription plus RNA processing and export.
