Abstract excerpt
The developing oocyte constitutes the source of a unique and essential molecular legacy that supports embryo metabolism for a substantial period after fertilization and that also directs important epigenetic events that prepare the embryonic genome for transcription and faithful execution of the developmental program. Parthenogenetically activated embryos provide a useful tool with which to examine how maternally...
