Inhibition of DRP1 Impedes Zygotic Genome Activation and Preimplantation Development in Mice

Mitochondrion plays an indispensable role during preimplantation embryo development. Dynamic-related protein 1 (DRP1) is critical for mitochondrial fission and controls oocyte maturation. However, its role in preimplantation embryo development is still lacking. In this study, we demonstrate that inh...
