The Polycomb group protein CBX6 is an essential regulator of embryonic stem cell identity
In mammals, five different CBX proteins can be part of Polycomb repressive complex 1 (PRC1). Here, the authors provide evidence that CBX6 plays an essential role in regulating pluripotency in embryonic stem cells and that CBX6 functions as part of both canonical and non-canonical PRC1 complexes.
