Chromosome hydroxymethylation patterns in human zygotes and cleavage-stage embryos
12 Dec 2014
Abstract excerpt
We report the sequential changes in 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) patterns in the genome of human preimplantation embryos during DNA methylation reprogramming. We have studied chromosome hydroxymethylation and methylation patterns in triploid zygotes and blastomeres of cleavage-stage embryos. Using indirect immunofluorescence, we have analyzed the localization of 5hmC and its co-distribution with...
