      Background InformationZygotic genome activation (ZGA) is a critical postfertilization step that promotes totipotency and allows different cell fates to emerge in the developing embryo. Dux (also known as Duxf3) in mouse and its human homologue DUX4 are double-homeodomain genes that are activated at the onset of ZGA in early embryos. Recent studies in 2-cell like embryonic stem cells (2C-like cells) suggest that transcription factors of the DUX family are key regulators of ZGA in placental mammals. MERVL (murine endogenous retrovirus-L) is transiently upregulated at the two-cell stage during ZGA and after the 2-cell stage, the expression of MERVL-retroelement is silenced and It has been found that this regulated pattern of MERVL expression overlapped with more than one hundred 2C-specific genes that have co-opted regulatory elements from these foreign retroviruses to begin their transcription. Although, MERVL expression is widely used as a marker of totipotency, the role of this retrotransposon in mouse embryogenesis remains elusive. Studies show that full-length MERVL transcripts, but not encoded retroviral proteins, are essential for accurate regulation of the host transcriptome and chromatin state during preimplantation development. Both knockdown and CRISPRi-based repression of MERVL result in embryonic lethality due to defects in differentiation and genomic stability. Furthermore, transcriptome and epigenome analysis has revealed that loss of MERVL transcripts led to retention of an accessible chromatin state at, and aberrant expression of, a subset of two-cell-specific genes. Gag or group-specific antigen is a polyprotein (UniProt: V9H130) and is encoded by the gag gene in mouse. It contains the core structural proteins of an Ortervirus and is believed to be antigenic. Studies suggest that this endogenous retrovirus plays a key role in regulating host cell fate potential (Ref.: Li, T.D., et al. (2022). Sci Adv. 8(47):eabq3806. (PMID: 36417507). ; Sakashita, A., et al. (2023). Nat Genet. 55(3):484-495. (PMID: 36864102).
