Oocyte maturation is vital to attain full competence required for fertilization and
embryogenesis. NLRP14 is preferentially expressed in mammalian oocytes and early …

The ubiquitin‐like, containing PHD and RING finger domains, 1 (UHRF1) protein recognizes
DNA methylation and histone modification and plays a critical role in epigenetic regulation …

Sperm‐induced Ca2+ rise is critical for driving oocyte activation and subsequent embryonic
development, but little is known about how lasting Ca2+ oscillations are regulated. Here it is …

Maternal factors that modulate maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) are essential for the
growth from specialized oocytes to totipotent embryos. Despite several studies, the …

The E3 ubiquitin ligase RNF12 plays essential roles during development, and the gene
encoding it, RLIM, is mutated in the X-linked human developmental disorder Tonne …

Purpose The aim of the study is to investigate presence and role of the gene encoding the
maternally contributed nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain (NOD)–like receptors with …

Nlrp9a, Nlrp9b and Nlrp9c are preferentially expressed in oocytes and early embryos in the
mouse. Simultaneous genetic ablation of Nlrp9a and Nlrp9c does not affect early embryonic …

Mutations in NLRP7 (NOD-like-receptor family, pyrin domain containing 7) are responsible
for a type of recurrent pregnancy loss known as recurrent hydatidiform mole (HYDM1). This …

Ubiquitin-like with PHD and RING finger domains 1 (UHRF1) is a protein essential for the
maintenance of DNA methylation in somatic cells. However, UHRF1 is predominantly …

NLRP (NACHT, LRR and PYD domains-containing proteins) family plays the pivotal roles in
mammalian reproduction. Mutation of NLRP7 is often associated with human recurrent …
