Epigenetic modifications and related mRNA expression during bovine oocyte in vitro maturation
1 Jul 2009
Abstract excerpt
The present study investigated the global pattern of two histone modifications and methylation of DNA during in vitro maturation of bovine oocytes retrieved from follicles of two different sizes (<2 mm and 2-8 mm). The methylation status of histone H3 at position lysine K9 (H3K9 me2), the acetylation status of histone H4 at position lysine K12 (H4K12ac) and the methylation of DNA were assessed by...
