UHRF1 is essential for proper cytoplasmic architecture and function of mouse oocytes and derived embryos
24 May 2023
Abstract excerpt
Ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) is a protein essential for the maintenance of DNA methylation in somatic cells. However, UHRF1 is predominantly localized in the cytoplasm of mouse oocytes and preimplantation embryos, where it may play a role unrelated to the nuclear function. We herein report that oocyte-specific Uhrf1 KO results in impaired chromosome segregation, abnormal cleavage...
