Examples

  • Most of the embryonic development is controlled by zygotically active genes

    Nüsslein-Volhard's and Wieschaus' discoveries 1995

  • Therefore, it is likely that the degree of saturation for the maternal genes is not as high as that for the zygotically expressed genes.

  • Another limitation we were more concerned about was that genes whose products were required both maternally and zygotically would be difficult to detect in mutant screens.

    Nobel Lecture The Identification Of Genes Controlling Development In Flies And Fishes 1995

  • This concern applied in particular to the maternal mutants: in cases of additional functions in the embryo, mutations in genes with important maternal functions might be lethal zygotically and therefore cannot be discovered in maternal screens.

  • - 3′UTR of Mus musculus also has a regulatory function during embryogenesis, even though NANOS3 is transcribed zygotically and germ cell formation in mice is quite different from other animals.

  • In this study, we resolve the regulatory connections between the Pmar1-activated PMC-GRN and the E-EM / En-GRN by testing the responsiveness of every zygotically activated core factor of the E-EM / En-GRN to the ectopic expression of the micromere determinant Pmar1.

  • The zygotically expressed core factors Z13, Eve, Wnt8, Blimp1, FoxA, and Brachyury (Bra) (circled in black) accumulate in presumptive endomesoderm during early developmental stages and could potentially respond to early inductive inputs from micromere descendants.

  • Zebrafish has two ogt genes, encoding six different enzymatic isoforms that are expressed maternally and zygotically.
