    Long Noncoding RNA Lx8-SINE B2 Interacts with Eno1 to Regulate Self-Renewal and Metabolism of Embryonic Stem Cells

    Depletion of Lx8-SINE B2 disrupted ESC proliferation, repressed the expression of pluripotency genes, activated differentiation genes, and inhibited reprogramming to iPSCs.

    Acquisition and Maintenance of Pluripotency Are Influenced by Fibroblast Growth Factor, Leukemia Inhibitory Factor, and 2i in Bovine-Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

    Investigators reprogrammed fetal fibroblasts by transient expression of the four transcription factors and cultured in iPSC medium, and then compared these bovine iPSC lines with bovine ESC to evaluate the pluripotent state.

    Trim28 Citrullination Maintains Mouse Embryonic Stem Cell Pluripotency via Regulating Nanog and Klf4 Transcription

    Investigators showed that tripartite motif containing 28 (Trim28) was specifically citrullinated in mESCs, and that the loss of Trim28 citrullination induced loss of pluripotency.

    Abstract

    Dual Genome-Wide Coding and lncRNA Screens in Neural Induction of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells

    Using CRISPR interference in hiPSCs, researchers performed dual genome-wide screens—assessing 18,905 protein-coding and 10,678 lncRNA loci—and identified 419 coding and 201 lncRNA genes that regulate neural induction.
