After fertilization, a paternal PN gradually establishes new epigenetic marks. In the middle pronuclear stage, newly synthesized Mll3/4 introduces H3K4me1 predominantly in paternal PNs, and it triggers transcriptional activation corresponding to minor ZGA from paternal genome. Since Mll3/4 preferentially mono-methylates H3K4 at enhancers rather than promoters, it suggests the importance of enhancer activation in the onset of paternal minor ZGA.M
