Dynamic Alternative Splicing During Mouse Preimplantation Embryo Development.

ABSTRACT: The mechanism of alternative pre-mRNA splicing (AS) during preimplantation development is largely unknown. In order to capture the dynamic changes of AS occurring during embryogenesis, we carried out bioinformatics analysis based on scRNA-seq data over the time-course preimplantation development in mouse. We detected numerous previously-unreported differentially expressed genes at specific developmental stages and investigated the nature of AS at both minor and major zygotic genome activation (ZGA). The AS and differential AS atlas over preimplantation development were established. The differentially alternatively spliced genes (DASGs) are likely to be key splicing factors (SFs) during preimplantation development. We also demonstrated that there is a regulatory cascade of AS events in whic
