Micrococcal nuclease sequencing of porcine sperm suggests a nucleosomal involvement on semen quality and early embryo development
2021-03-31
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> The mammalian mature spermatozoon has a unique chromatin structure in which the vast majority of histones are replaced by protamines during spermatogenesis and a small fraction of nucleosomes are retained at specific locations of the genome. The chromatin structure of sperm remains unresolved in most livestock species, including the pig. However, its resolution could provide further light into...
