Reprogramming refers to erasure and remodeling of epigenetic marks, such as DNA methylation, during mammalian development.... After fertilization the paternal and maternal genomes are once again demethylated and remethylated... This reprogramming is likely required for totipotency of the newly formed embryo and erasure of acquired epigenetic changes. 3, record 1, English, - reprogramming
