Abstract excerpt
Maternally inherited RNA and proteins control much of embryonic development. The effect of such maternal information beyond embryonic development is largely unclear. Here, we report that maternal contribution of histone H3.3 assembly complexes can prevent the expression of late-onset anatomical, physiologic, and behavioral abnormalities of C. elegans. We show that mutants lacking hira-1, an evolutionarily...
