Transcription activation of early human development suggests DUX4 as an embryonic regulator
2017-04-02
Abstract excerpt
In order to better understand human preimplantation development we applied massively parallel RNA sequencing on 337 single cells from oocytes up to 8-cell embryo blastomeres. Surprisingly, already before zygote pronuclear fusion we observed drastic changes in the transcriptome compared to the unfertilized egg: 1,804 gene transcripts and 32 repeat elements become more abundant, among these the double-homeobox gene...
