EZH2 is essential for development of mouse preimplantation embryos.
Enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (Ezh2) is essential for the development of the early mouse preimplantation embryo. Loss of Ezh2 results in embryonic lethality in mice. Ezh2-deficient embryos display impaired outgrowth potential, defective establishment of Ezh2-null embryonic stem (ES) cells and adherence and differentiation of the trophoblast layer into giant cells. We investigated if Ezh2 contro...
متن کاملFAM deubiquitylating enzyme is essential for preimplantation mouse embryo development
FAM is a developmentally regulated substrate-specific deubiquitylating enzyme. It binds the cell adhesion and signalling molecules beta-catenin and AF-6 in vitro, and stabilises both in mammalian cell culture. To determine if FAM is required at the earliest stages of mouse development we examined its expression and function in preimplantation mouse embryos. FAM is expressed at all stages of pre...
متن کاملHistone variant H3.3 maintains a decondensed chromatin state essential for mouse preimplantation development.
Histone variants can replace canonical histones in the nucleosome and modify chromatin structure and gene expression. The histone variant H3.3 preferentially associates with active chromatin and has been implicated in the regulation of a diverse range of developmental processes. However, the mechanisms by which H3.3 may regulate gene activity are unclear and gene duplication has hampered an ana...
متن کاملCell polarity regulator PARD6B is essential for trophectoderm formation in the preimplantation mouse embryo.
In preimplantation mouse development, the first cell lineages to be established are the trophectoderm (TE) and inner cell mass. TE possesses epithelial features, including apical-basal cell polarity and intercellular junctions, which are crucial to generate a fluid-filled cavity in the blastocyst. Homologs of the partitioning defective (par) genes in Caenorhabditis elegans are critical regulato...
متن کاملCdx2 is essential for axial elongation in mouse development.
Inactivation of Cdx2 leads to preimplantation embryonic lethality. Rescue of the implantation defect by tetraploid fusion established that Cdx2 is necessary for trophoblastic development, vasculogenesis in the yolk sac mesoderm, allantoic growth, and chorioallantoic fusion. "Rescued" Cdx2 mutants die at late gastrulation stages because of failure of placental development. Cdx2 is also needed fo...
