Abstract
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are precursors of gametes and are the only way of transmitting the genetic and epigenetic information to the next generation. As PGC migrate and colonize the future gonads, the expression of germ cell-specific genes, like Mvh (Mouse Vasa Homologue), appear. Also at this stage, epigenetic reprogramming is important for the ultimate differentiation of these cell…
