Sperm whale long-range echolocation sounds revealed by ANTARES, a deep-sea neutrino telescope.

abstract：:Spermatogenesis is a highly regulated process during which haploid sperm cells are generated. Although autophagy is involved in the spermatogenesis process, the molecular pathways and regulations of autophagy in germ cell development remain elusive. Here, we showed that Ppp1r36, a regulatory subunit of protein phospha...
