A stepwise mode of TGFβ-SMAD signaling and DNA methylation regulates naïve-to-primed pluripotency and differentiation by Bingnan Zhao, Xiuwei Yu, Jintong Shi, Shuangyu Ma, Shizhao Li, Haitao Shi, Shoubing Xia, Youqiong Ye, Yongchun Zhang, Yanhua Du, Qiong Wang

“…Here, we introduce a stepwise paradigm in which Smad2/3 regulate the lineage priming and differentiation of mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) by collaboration with different effectors. During the naïve-to-primed transition, Smad2/3 upregulate DNA methyltransferase 3b (Dnmt3b), which establishes the proper DNA methylation patterns and, in turn, enables Smad2/3 binding to the hypomethylated centers of promoters and enhancers of epiblast marker genes. …”
