DNA methylation patterns were evaluated during preimplantation
mouse development by analyzing the binding of monoclonal antibody to
5-methylcytosine (5-MeC) on metaphase chromosomes. Specific chromosome
patterns were observed in each cell stage. A banding pattern
predominated in chromosomes at the one-cell stage. Banding was replaced
at the two-cell stage by an asymmetrical labeling of the sister
chromatids. Then, the proportion of asymmetrical chromosomes decreased
by one-half at each cell division until the blastocyst stage, and
chromosomes became progressively symmetrical and weakly labeled. Our
results indicate that chromosome demethylation is associated with each
DNA replication and suggest that a passive mechanism predominates
during early development.
