Identification, characterization and metagenome analysis of oocyte-specific genes organized in clusters in the mouse genome

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Genes specifically expressed in the oocyte play key roles in oogenesis, ovarian folliculogenesis, fertilization and/or early embryonic development. In an attempt to identify novel oocyte-specific genes in the mouse, we have used an &...
