Abstract excerpt
The transmission of chromatin states from parent cells to daughter cells preserves cell-specific transcriptional states and thus cell identity through cell division. The mechanism that underpins this process is not fully understood. The role that chromatin states serve in transmitting gene expression information across generations via sperm and oocytes is even less understood. Here, we utilized a model in which...
