Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a means for distinguishing between a germ cell derived from a donor (tuna) and a germ cell derived from a recipient in a method for inducing differentiation of a tuna germ cell, wherein a primordial germ cell derived from the tuna is transplanted into an early embryo of the heterologous recipient fish. The present inventors compared a Vasa amino acid sequence of bluefin tuna with those of other fish (black skipjack, skipjack, chub mackerel, blue mackerel, round frigate mackerel and frigate mackerel), identified amino acid sequence regions specific to bluefin tuna, and, by using the amino acid sequences specific to bluefin tuna as antigens, successfully produced monoclonal antibodies specifically recognizing primordial germ cells, spermatogonia, oogonia or oocytes derived from bluefin tuna, thus accomplishing the present invention.
