## Abstract Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is responsible for stability, maintenance, and transcriptional control of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). We have studied the expression and distribution of TFAM in the gametes and preimplantation embryos of the domestic pig (__Sus scrofa__). We hy
In most species, transcription is essentially silent during the first mitotic cell cycles that follow fertilization. This means that the regulation of gene expression in early embryos heavily relies on the translational activation or inactivation of maternal mRNAs. In mammals, the mechanisms that co
