Polycomb repressive complex PRC1 spatially constrains the mouse embryonic stem cell genome.
2015
Sarah Elderkin and colleagues show that PRC1 acts as a master regulator of genome architecture in mouse embryonic stem cells by organizing genes in three-dimensional interaction networks. They find that the strongest spatial network is composed of the four Hox clusters and key early developmental transcription factor genes, and they propose that selective release of genes from this spatial network underlies cell fate specification during embryonic development.
