Pluripotency factor binding and Tsix expression act synergistically to repress Xist in undifferentiated embryonic stem cells.

BACKGROUND: Expression of Xist, the master regulator of X chromosome inactivation, is extinguished in pluripotent cells, a process that has been linked to programmed X chromosome reactivation. The key pluripotency transcription factors Nanog, Oct4 and Sox2 are implicated in Xist gene extinction, at...
