Paternal genome rescues mouse preimplantation embryo development in the absence of maternally-recruited EZH2 activity

Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2), a component of the PRC2 complex, trimethylates H3K27, a transcriptionally repressive histone mark. EZH2 is encoded by a dormant maternal mRNA and inhibiting the maturation-associated increase in EZH2 activity using either a combined siRNA/morpholino approach or a...
