摘要

Male and female mammalian germ cells follow identicaldevelopmental trajectories for the first half of embryogenesis,during which time they also maintain a pluripotentlikestate. Beginning around day 13.5 of embryogenesis(E13.5), male and female germ cells initiate dramaticallydifferent developmental programs: female germ cells entermeiotic prophase, while male germ cells enter a G0-likecell cycle arrest until after birth [1]. At this time, bothmale and female germ cells also lose the ability to establishpluripotent cell lines in culture [2]. As late as E12.5, maleand female germ cells are morphologically identical, andfew transcriptional differences can be detected [1,3]. Toevaluate the coordination of sex-specific transcriptionalstates during this important interval in germ cell differentiation,we examined placement of the activating histonemodification H3K4me3 and the repressive histone modificationH3K27me3 in XX and XY murine germ cells beforeand during the initiation of sex differentiation.
