Journal ArticleDOI

Nuclear actin polymerization is required for transcriptional reprogramming of Oct4 by oocytes

TL;DR: This is the first report showing that naturally stored actin in an oocyte nucleus helps transcriptional reprogramming in a polymerization-dependent manner, and an actin signaling protein, Toca-1, enhances Oct4 reactivation by regulating nuclear actin polymerization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epiblast Stem Cell-Based System Reveals Reprogramming Synergy of Germline Factors

TL;DR: A Prdm14-Klf2 synergistic effect that can accelerate and enhance reversion of mouse epiblast stem cells to a naive pluripotent state, including X reactivation and DNA demethylation is shown.
Journal ArticleDOI

Histone variant macroH2A confers resistance to nuclear reprogramming

TL;DR: The results uncover the decreased stability of the Xi in EpiSCs, and highlight the importance of combinatorial epigenetic repression involving macroH2A in restricting transcriptional reprogramming by oocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zebrafish Sox7 and Sox18 function together to control arterial-venous identity.

TL;DR: The striking similarities between the phenotype of Sox7/Sox18 morphants and Gridlock mutants strongly suggest that Sox7 and Sox18 control arterial-venous identity by regulating Gridlock expression.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of nuclear reprogramming by eggs and oocytes: a deterministic process?

TL;DR: The egg and oocyte reprogramming process includes the exchange of somatic proteins for oocyte proteins, the post-translational modification of histones and the demethylation of DNA, indicating that reprograming by nuclear transfer and by cell fusion rely on deterministic processes.
