Epigenetics: Maternal TRIM28 for male embryos

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology 18, 138 (2017). doi:10.1038/nrm.2017.13 Author: Eytan Zlotorynski In mice, the absence of maternal Trim28 expression in early male embryos causes loss of DNA methylation and derepression of a non-imprinted gene, which results in lethality.
