Histone variant H2A.Z regulates zygotic genome activation
During embryogenesis, the genome becomes transcriptionally active in a process known as zygotic genome activation (ZGA); how ZGA is initiated is still an open question. Here the authors show histone variant H2A.Z deposition precedes RNA polymerase II binding on chromatin, before ZGA. H2A.Z loss caus...

Sumario: | During embryogenesis, the genome becomes transcriptionally active in a process known as zygotic genome activation (ZGA); how ZGA is initiated is still an open question. Here the authors show histone variant H2A.Z deposition precedes RNA polymerase II binding on chromatin, before ZGA. H2A.Z loss causes transcriptional downregulation of ZGA genes and leads to changes in the 3D genome organization. |
