Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) is a critical post-fertilization step that promotes totipotency and allows different cell fates to emerge in the developing embryo. MERVL, murine endogenous retrovirus-
Endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are becoming more and more relevant in cancer research and might be potential targets. The oncogenic potential of human ERVs (HERVs) has been recognized and includes imm
We demonstrate that loss of the histone H3K9 methyltransferase G9a in the developing mammary epithelium results in de novo chromatin opening which leads to severely impaired development of the mammary
