H3K4me2 accompanies chromatin immaturity in human spermatozoa: an epigenetic marker for sperm quality assessment
3 Oct 2019
Abstract excerpt
Chromatin remodeling, including histone post-translational modifications, during spermatogenesis can affect sperm quality and fertility, and epigenetic marks may therefore be useful for clinical evaluations of sperm. Together with histone hyperacetylation, the dimethylation of histone H3 on lysine K4 (H3K4me2) is also required during protamination. Accordingly, we evaluated the utilization of this epigenetic mark...
