Emerging evidence that the mammalian sperm epigenome serves as a template for embryo development
Abstract Although more studies are demonstrating that a father’s environment can influence child health and disease, the molecular mechanisms underlying non-genetic inheritance remain unclear. It was previously thought that sperm exclusively contributed its genome to the egg. More recently, associat...
