The earliest stages of development in most metazoans are driven by maternally deposited proteins and mRNAs, with widespread transcriptional activation of the zygotic genome occurring hours after fertilization, at a period known as the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT). In Drosophila, the MZT is p...

Post-transcriptional gene regulatory mechanisms are fundamental to the determination of gene expression dynamics and especially crucial for the earliest stages of animal development in which transcription is nearly silent. Here we performed high-resolution total RNA-sequencing and quantitative mass ...

Microarray analysis of zygotic gene expression in 2-to-3 hour wild-type (wt) and smg mutant embryos. Expression is relative to mature, stage 14 oocytes, which contain the full maternal pool of mRNA. Strictly maternal genes that are not transcribed at the MZT contribute approximately 80% of transc...

Post-transcriptional gene regulatory mechanisms are fundamental for the determination of gene expression dynamics and especially crucial for the earliest stages of animal development in which transcription is nearly silent. Here we performed high-resolution gene expression level change analysis in D...

In animal embryos the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) hands developmental control from maternal to zygotic gene products. We show that the maternal proteome represents over half of the protein coding capacity of the Drosophila melanogaster genome and that 2% of this proteome is rapidly degraded...

The maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a process that occurs in animal embryos at the earliest developmental stages, during which maternally deposited mRNAs and other molecules are degraded and replaced by products of the zygotic genome. The zygotic genome is not activated immediately upon fert...

Replication of the eukaryotic genome requires the assembly of thousands of replisomes that must work in concert to accurately replicate a cell’s genetic and epigenetic information. Defining replisome-associated proteins is a key step in understanding how genomes are replicated and repaired in the co...

The behavior of 410 miR-309-dependent maternal mRNAs (from Bushati et al., 2008) in embryos from wild type and smg-mutant females relative to wild-type stage 14 oocyte reference RNA. All are unstable in wild-type while almost 85% are stabilized in smg mutants mRNA was extracted from staged embryos a...
ORGANISM(S): Drosophila melanogaster 
In all animals, the initial events of embryogenesis are controlled by maternal gene products that are deposited into the developing oocyte. At some point after fertilization, control of embryogenesis is transferred to the zygotic genome in a process called the maternal to zygotic transition (MZT). D...
ORGANISM(S): Drosophila melanogaster 
Background: During the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) vast changes in the embryonic transcriptome are produced by a combination of two processes: elimination of maternally provided mRNAs and synthesis of new transcripts from the zygotic genome. Previous genome-wide analyses of the MZT have bee...
