DPPA3 is a protein that in mice may function as a maternal factor during the preimplantation stage of development. In mice, this protein may play a role in transcriptional repression, cell division, and maintenance of cell pluripotentiality. In humans, related intronless loci are located on chromosomes 14 and X Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-159 from human DPPA3 fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli.
