Kleene K
Cytogenet Genome Res . 2004 Mar; 103(3-4):217-24. PMID: 15051942
Translational regulation is a fundamental aspect of the atypical patterns of gene expression in mammalian meiotic and haploid spermatogenic cells. Every mRNA is at least partially translationally repressed in meiotic...

Kleene K
Mech Dev . 2001 Jul; 106(1-2):3-23. PMID: 11472831
This review focuses on the striking differences in the patterns of transcription and translation in somatic and spermatogenic cells in mammals. In early haploid cells, mRNA translation evidently functions to...

Mastrangelo M, Kleene K
Mol Hum Reprod . 2000 Aug; 6(9):779-88. PMID: 10956549
Y-box proteins bind DNA and RNA and are characterized by a cold shock domain and a carboxyl-terminus containing clusters of aromatic and basic residues that alternate with clusters of acidic...

Kleene K, Mastrangelo M
Genomics . 1999 Oct; 61(2):194-200. PMID: 10534404
The mouse Pabp2 retroposon encodes an isoform of poly(A) binding protein that is expressed in meiotic and early haploid spermatogenic cells. In the present study, we have determined the transcription...

Cataldo L, Mastrangelo M, Kleene K
Mol Hum Reprod . 1999 May; 5(3):206-13. PMID: 10333353
Sucrose gradients have been widely used to study the translational activity of mRNA species in meiotic and haploid spermatogenic cells in mammals. Unfortunately, the results of these studies have been...

Zhong X, Kleene K
Mamm Genome . 1999 Jan; 10(1):6-12. PMID: 9892725
Retroposons are a class of genes created by reverse transcribing a processed mRNA and inserting the DNA copy into genomic DNA in germ-line cells. The present study concerns the question:...

Kleene K, Mulligan E, Steiger D, Donohue K, Mastrangelo M
J Mol Evol . 1998 Sep; 47(3):275-81. PMID: 9732454
The gene encoding the testis-specific isoform of mouse poly(A) binding protein (Pabp2) has been isolated and sequenced. Unexpectedly, comparison of the sequence of genomic and cDNAs demonstrated that the Pabp2...

Cataldo L, Mastrangelo M, Kleene K
Exp Cell Res . 1997 Feb; 231(1):206-13. PMID: 9056428
Male germ cells in mice develop normally at 32 degrees C and spermatogenesis is severely inhibited by higher temperatures, including abdominal temperature, 37 degrees C. To examine the effects of...

Cataldo L, Baig K, Oko R, Mastrangelo M, Kleene K
Mol Reprod Dev . 1996 Nov; 45(3):320-31. PMID: 8916043
The outer membranes of mitochondria of mammalian sperm are encased in a keratinous structure known as the mitochondrial capsule. The experiments in the present study were designed to resolve a...

Kleene K
Mol Reprod Dev . 1996 Feb; 43(2):268-81. PMID: 8824926
The translational activity of more than 40 different mRNAs in rodent testes has been analyzed by determining the proportions of inactive free-mRNPs and active polysomal mRNAs in sucrose gradients. These...
