soma and in primordial germ cells\, Professor Ferenc Mueller\, Institute of Cancer and Genomic Sciences\, University of Birmingham TZID:Europe/London UID:20221124-8a1785d8847a84e201848afae71f4dd0@warwick.ac.uk CREATED:20221118T134329Z DESCRIPTION:Abstract Initial development of the embryo is exclusively und er the control of maternally deposited proteins and RNAs. In externally developing metazoan embryos cycles of extremely fast and synchronous cel l divisions precedes global zygotic genome activation (ZGA). The genome is activated when a threshold nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio is reached\, whic h dilutes repressive maternal factors. This event coincides with the mid -blastula transition (MBT). However\, the earliest expressed genes\, whi ch prepare the rest of the genome for activation escape global genome re pression and are activated well before the MBT. How do these genes get t ranscribed during the short cell cycles\, which are only 15 minutes and lack G phases\, remains mostly unexplored. We have developed a native tr anscription imaging tool\, which detected nascent transcripts accumulati ng in a transcription body during the minor wave of genome activation. W e described the spatial and temporal dynamics of the first wave of genom e activation and its cross-regulation by the cell cycle. We demonstrate that the transcription body forms at an excessively high copy number gen e cluster\, composed of the highest promoter density in the genome and w hich encodes miR430 microRNAs responsible for clearance of maternal mRNA s. While this transcription body represent the main sites of detectable transcription\, we showed that minor wave genes can be independently tra nscribed due to their distinct promoter architecture and promoter featur es from that of the main wave of ZGA. These findings suggest distinct tr anscription mechanisms between the minor and major waves of genome activ ation. To further explore mechanisms of zygotic genome activation and th e contribution of parental information to this process we also focussed on the formation and specification of primordial germ cells\, which are singled out by selective retention of maternal determinants. 4D imaging and epigenomic analysis of these cells have uncovered the role of cytopl asmic maternal determinants in distinct chromatin topology organisation for specific gene regulation of primordial germ cells during early devel opment.
