H3K4 methylation-promoted transcriptional memory ensures faithful zygotic genome activation and embryonic development

In the life of a vertebrate embryo, gene expression is initiated for the first time at zygotic genome activation (ZGA). Maternally expressed transcription factors present in the embryo are essential f...
