Here the authors apply low-input methyl RNA immunoprecipitation and sequencing to map the N6-methyladenosine landscape during mouse oocyte and early embryo development. They show that RNAs derived from retrotransposons are often N6-methyladenosine marked and so are many genes important for the maternal-to-zygotic transition.
