Mammalian oocytes are filled with poorly understood structures called cytoplasmic lattices. First discovered in the 1960s and speculated to correspond mammalian yolk, ribosomal arrays, or intermediate filaments, their function has remained enigmatic date. Here, we show that lattices sites where store essential proteins for early embryonic development. Using super-resolution light microscopy cryoelectron tomography, composed of filaments a high surface area, which contain PADI6 subcortical maternal complex proteins. The associate many critical development, including control epigenetic reprogramming preimplantation embryo. Loss by knocking out prevents accumulation these results arrest. Our work suggests enrich maternally provided prevent premature degradation cellular activity, thereby enabling

Zygotic genome activation (ZGA) after fertilization enables the maternal-to-zygotic transition. However, global view of ZGA, particularly at initiation, is incompletely understood. Here, we develop a method to capture and sequence newly synthesized RNA in early mouse embryos, providing transcriptional reprogramming during ZGA. Our data demonstrate that major ZGA gene begins earlier than previously thought. Furthermore, identify set genes activated minor promoters which show enrichment Obox factor motif, find Obox3 or Obox5 overexpression embryonic stem cells activates genes. Notably, expression factors severely impaired somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) restoration corrects profile greatly improves SCNT embryo development. Hence, our study reveals dynamic underscores crucial role facilitating totipotency acquisition.
