Pan troglodytes Germ plasm/Polar granule
※ Germ plasm/Polar granule introduction Germ plasm, a specialized cytoplasm present at the posterior of the early Drosophila embryo, is necessary and sufficient for germ cell formation. Germ plasm is rich in mitochondria and contains electron dense structures called polar granules, which are necessary for germ line formation and might be related to P bodies (1). In zebra-fish, germ plasm are proved to be related phase-separated structures. Throughout development, many germ cell-specific mRNAs and proteins condense as a single large aggregate (Bb), which disperse throughout oogenesis and upon fertilization accumulates again into relatively large assemblies (Gp) (2). In many organisms, germ cell fate is imposed on cells through the cytoplasmic inheritance of germ plasm (Gp) (2). Reference
