## Abstract Mammals, like all multicellular organisms, develop from a single cellβthe totipotent zygote. During preimplantation development and subsequent development in utero, over 200 distinct cell types are established and integrated into the organ systems and tissues of the developing organism.

A fundamental problem in early mammalian development is the transformation of the highly differentiated oocyte into the totipotent blastomeres by the 2-cell stage. This remarkable transformation probably entails reprogramming the pattern of gene expression. The maternal-to-zygotic transition occurs
## Abstract The process of oligodendrocyte differentiation is regulated by a dynamic interaction between a genetic and an epigenetic program. Recent studies, addressing nucleosomal histone modifications have considerably increased our knowledge regarding epigenetic regulation of gene expression dur
