Mouse Oocyte Egr3 Expression

Egr3 is localized to the meiotic spindle of mouse oocytes at all stages of maturation. Germinal vesicle (GV) stage oocytes were obtained by ovary puncture and were cultured in M16. Oocytes were fixed in 3.7% formaldehyde and were subjected to immunofluorescence staining with anti-Egr3 antibody (Santa Cruz). Oocytes in the left panel are shown at 60X and enlarged images of chromosome-containing areas are shown in the right panel.

PI, prophase I; PMI, prometaphase I (cultured for 3 h); MI, metaphase I (cultured for 8 h); MII, metaphase II (cultured for 12 h).

Red scale bar, 30 μm; white scale bar, 10 μm. Green, Egr3; blue, DNA.
