PHF1 is required for chromosome alignment and asymmetric division during mouse meiotic oocyte maturation.

ABSTRACT: In recent years, the etiological study of oocyte maturation failure and other mechanisms of early embryonic development has gradually advanced. However, while some achievements have been made in this field, the intrinsic mechanisms underlying disordered oocyte maturation remain unclear. Polycomb group proteins (PcG) are a family of proteins that are involved in the epigenetic silencing of genes. Many members of this family are reportedly involved in mammalian oocyte maturation and early embryonic development. PHD finger protein 1 (PHF1) is a core member of the polycomblike group of proteins, although its role in oocyte maturation and early embryonic development are unknown. A previous study by our group using single cell transcriptome analysis and high-throughput technology revealed that P
