Vitamin C activates young LINE-1 elements in mouse embryonic stem cells via H3K9me3 demethylation
Abstract Background Vitamin C (vitC) enhances the activity of 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenases, including TET enzymes, which catalyse DNA demethylation, and Jumonji-domain histone demethylases. The epigenetic remodelling promoted by vitC improves the efficiency of induced pluripotent stem cell...
