Y-box binding proteins (YB proteins) are DNA/RNA-binding proteins belonging to a large
family of proteins with the cold shock domain. Functionally, these proteins are known to be …

The maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a conserved and fundamental process during
which the maternal environment is converted to an environment of embryonic-driven …

Since their discovery, the study of maternal mRNA s has led to the identification of
mechanisms underlying their spatiotemporal regulation within the context of oogenesis and …

Adenosine deaminases (ADARs) catalyze the deamination of adenosine to inosine, also
known as A-to-I editing, in RNA. Although A-to-I editing occurs widely across animals and is …

Maternal mRNAs and proteins dictate early embryonic development before zygotic genome
activation. In the absence of transcription, elaborate control of maternal mRNA translation is …

As in mammals, ovarian folliculogenesis in teleosts also consists of two phases: the primary
growth (PG) and secondary growth (SG) phases, which are analogous to the preantral and …

Background Vertebrate early embryogenesis is initially directed by a set of maternal RNAs
and proteins, yet the mechanisms controlling this program remain largely unknown. Recent …

Direct reprogramming of fibroblasts into induced cardiomyocytes (iCMs) holds great promise
for heart regeneration. Although considerable progress has been made in understanding …

Reproduction is an energetically costly event across vertebrates and tightly linked to
nutritional status and energy reserves. In mammals, the hormone leptin is considered as a …

Simple Summary Y-box-binding protein-1, YB-1, plays an important role in regulating the
cell cycle, although precisely how it does the is unknown. Using live cell imaging, we show …
