The numbers on the right indicate the global CG methylation levels. c Scatter plots comparing CG methylation levels of 10-kb genomic bins between Dnmt3a ADD/ADD and Dnmt3L ADD/ADD spermatozoa. d CG methylation levels of the maternally and paternally methylated ICRs in spermatozoa of the indicated genotypes. e , CG methylation levels of repeat elements (LINEs, LTRs, and SINEs) in spermatozoa of the indicated genotypes. The color code is as Fig. 4d. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.

Figure Lengend Snippet: a Changes in gene expression detected between wild-type and [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] FGOs. Genes that are up-regulated and down-regulated in [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] FGOs are plotted in red and blue, respectively (fold-change > 2, FDR < 0.05). b Multi-dimensional scaling plots of the gene expression profiles of FGOs of the indicated genotypes. The profiles of the wild-type MII oocytes are also shown. Each color-coded dot shows single-cell data. c Representative images of embryos recovered at E9.5. Wild-type embryo (top) and embryo obtained from [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] oocyte fertilized with wild-type spermatozoa (bottom). This experiment was repeated twice independently. d Volcano plots showing gene expression differences of each parental allele between embryos obtained from wild-type and [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] oocytes. Data from the maternal (left) and paternal allele (right) are separately shown. Red dots indicate the maternally imprinted genes ( n = 35). P values by the exact test under a negative binomial distribution. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.

Figure Lengend Snippet: a Scatter plots comparing non-CG methylation levels of 10-kb genomic bins between FGOs of the indicated genotypes. A comparison between wild-type and Dnmt3L knockout FGOs is also shown. b Scatter plots comparing the non-CG methylation levels of 10-kb bins between spermatozoa of the indicated genotypes. A comparison between wild-type and Dnmt3L knockout P10 SG is also shown. c Genome browser view of CG methylation (mCG) and non-CG methylation (mCH) levels in FGOs and spermatozoa of the indicated genotypes. Two genomic regions of 4.6 Mb (left) and 4.0 Mb (right) are shown. H3K36me3 ChIP-seq peaks in wild-type FGOs and round spermatids (RS) are also shown. The 10-kb bins exhibiting non-CG methylation levels > 5% higher in [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] oocytes and spermatozoa compared to their wild-type counterparts are indicated in a row designated “ΔmCH>5%”. Four representative regions containing such high mCH bins are indicated by open boxes and their zoomed-in snapshots are displayed at the bottom. d Bar graphs showing the fractions of methylated cytosines in all cytosines for FGOs (top) and spermatozoa (bottom) of the indicated genotypes. Each bar is divided into subsegments representing mCH and mCG. e Pie charts showing the ratios of methylated CA, CT, and CC in FGOs (top) and spermatozoa (bottom) of the indicated genotypes. f A motif showing enrichment in high-mCH 1-kb bins of [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] FGOs and spermatozoa ( N = 1855) over randomly selected 1-kb bins. g Violin plots showing distributions of non-CG methylation levels of 1-kb bins in wild-type FGOs (left) and spermatozoa (right). The 1-kb bins exhibiting non-CG methylation levels > 20% higher in [ Dnmt3a ADD/ADD , Dnmt3L ADD/ADD ] compared to their wild-type counterparts were compared with randomly selected bins. *** 1 and *** 2 p value = 5.92E-291, and 3.44E−72, respectively, by two-tailed t-test.
