Abstract
⺠Regulation of expression of sperm chromatin components at multiple levels. ⺠Testis specific TAF Sa binds to the protamine B gene. ⺠The open reading frame is required for strict translational repression of protamine B and Mst77F mRNA. ⺠Spermatocytes contain the transregulatory mechanisms to hinder Protamine B and Mst77F protein accumulation. ⺠Late spermatids contain the machinery to allow Protamine B and Mst77F protein accumulation.
