Project description:Transcriptome profiling of MII oocytes, zygote and 2-cell embryos (processed as individual blastomeres) from wild-type females, females with a single point mutation in Padi6 resulting in the amino acid substitution C663A (Padi6-C663A), and females with a Padi6 null mutation (Padi6-KO).
Project description:FAM134B is a reticulon-homology domain (RHD)-containing protein that participates in membrane-shaping of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)8 13. It also functions as a mammalian ER-phagy receptor, mediating the fragmentation and selective degradation of ER sheets in multiple cell types8. However, little is known about the molecular and biophysical mechanisms that control and/or switch between these two FAM134B functions.
