Here, we review the two main mechanisms of PGC specification, induction, and preformation, in the context of four model vertebrate species: {{mouse}}, {{axolotl}}, Xenopus {{frog}}s, and {{zebrafish}}. We additionally discuss some notable molecular characteristics shared across PGC specification pathways, including the shared expression of products from three conserved germline gene families, DAZ (Deleted in Azoospermia) genes, nanos-related genes, and DEAD-box RNA helicases. Then, we summarize the current state of knowledge of the distribution of germ cell determination systems across kingdom Animalia, with particular attention to vertebrate species, but include several categories of invertebrates - ranging from the "proto-vertebrate" cephalochordates to arthropods, cnidarians, and ctenophores. We also briefly highlight ongoing investigations and potential lines of inquiry that aim to understand the evolutionary relationships between these modes of specification."</ins></div></td></tr>

Our genome-wide analyses of embryonic human and mouse germlines reveal a conserved transcriptional program, initiated in PGCs after gonadal colonization, that differentiates germ cells from their germline precursors and from somatic lineages. Through genetic studies in mice and pigs, we demonstrate that one such gonad-induced factor, the RNA-binding protein [https://www.omim.org/entry/601486 DAZL], is necessary in vivo to restrict the developmental potential of the germline; DAZL's absence prolongs expression of a {{Nanog}} pluripotency reporter, facilitates derivation of pluripotent cell lines, and causes spontaneous gonadal teratomas.
