DNA methylation in bull spermatozoa: evolutionary impacts, interindividual variability, and contribution to the embryo

2019-10-01

Abstract excerpt

The DNA methylome of spermatozoa results from a unique epigenetic reprogramming crucial for chromatin compaction and the protection of the paternal genetic heritage. Although bull semen is widely used for artificial insemination (AI), little is known about the sperm epigenome in cattle. The purpose of this review is to synthetize recent work on the bull sperm methylome in light of the knowledge accumulated in huma...
