Reprogramming by De-bookmarking the Somatic Transcriptional Program through Targeting of BET Bromodomains

One critical event in reprogramming to pluripotency is erasure of the somatic transcriptional program of starting cells. Here, we present the proof of principle of a strategy for reprogramming to pluripotency facilitated by small molecules that interfere with the somatic transcriptional memory. We s...
