HMCES and DNMT silencing in early embryonic development in humans.
Abstract
DNMT3A and DNMT3B expression are silenced together with HMCES and this occurs concomitant with GADD45A/B induction in early embryonic development in humans. HMCES silencing concomitant with DNMT3A and DNMT3B silencing between the 1st and 3rd cell divisions (1-cell to 8-cell embryo) occurred in a developmentally programmed fashion together with an expression switch involving switching from Tet3 to Tet1/2 expression.
