Embryonic and uterine development during early pregnancy in pigs.
Comparison of the timing of pig preimplantation development, alterations in the ultrastructure of embryonic germ layers, and cytological changes of the uterine epithelial cells leads to the supposition that a close relationship exists between embryonic ...

Transcription factor OTX2 silences the expression of cleavage embryo genes and transposable elements
Upon mammalian fertilization, zygotic genome activation (ZGA) and activation of transposable elements (TEs) occur in early embryos to establish totipotency and support embryogenesis.

A viable mouse model of factor X deficiency provides evidence for maternal transfer of factor X. [PDF]
BackgroundActivated factor X (FXa) is a vitamin K-dependent serine protease that plays a pivotal role in blood coagulation by converting prothrombin to thrombin. There are no reports of humans with complete deficiency of FX, and knockout of murine F10 is

G-quadruplexes as novel cis-elements controlling transcription during embryonic development
G-quadruplexes are dynamic structures folded in G-rich single-stranded DNA regions. These structures have been recognized as a potential nucleic acid based mechanism for regulating multiple cellular processes such as replication, transcription and ...
