Jan 27, 2016GIBH scientists discovered that dynamically reorganized chromatin is the key for the reprogramming of somatic cells to pluripotent cellsDuring the progression from mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) to pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), the cell undergoes a remodeling of chromatin architecture. Nucleosomes are the fundamental structural units of chromatin, consisting of app...
