Species-dependent expression patterns of DNA methyltransferase genes in mammalian oocytes and preimplantation embryos

DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) comprise a family of proteins involved in the establishment and maintenance of DNA methylation patterns in the mammalian genome. DNA methylation involves the transfer of the methyl group of the coenzyme S‐adenosyl‐L‐methionine to the 5 position of cytosine residues wit...
