Contributions of spermatozoa to embryogenesis: assays to evaluate their genetic and epigenetic fitness.

Reproductive biomedicine online - 1 Apr 2008

Carrell Douglas T

Abstract excerpt

During fertilization, spermatozoa contribute genetic and epigenetic factors that affect early embryogenesis. Genetic factors include a haploid genome with intact coding regions and regulatory regions for essential genes. The DNA must contain the proper copy number of essential genes, and cannot have increased single- or double- stranded DNA breaks. Epigenetic factors include a functional centrosome, proper...
