DNA methylation reprogramming in marsupial embryos is restricted to the extraembryonic lineage

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> DNA methylation (5mC) is an epigenetic mark that plays a critical role in defining cell fate. Following fertilisation, DNA methylation inherited from gametes must be reprogrammed to establish totipotency and enable the parental-to-zygotic transition. To accomplish this, non-mammalian vertebrates such as zebrafish and medaka subtly reprogram maternal 5mC profiles while maintaining high methylatio...
