ABSTRACT
Molecular control of stem cell and developmental potencyresides in a core circuitry of master transcription factors that act in conjunction with epigenetic cofactors for activation and repression of downstream target genes. We have employedboth genomic and proteomic approaches as well as mouse models to study protein-protein interaction and protein-DNAregulatory networks that govern embryonic stem cell (ESC) pluripotency, somatic cell reprogramming, and embryogenesis. Our long-term goal isto understand how cell identity is established, maintained, and altered during mammalian (both mouse and human) developmentunder both normal and pathological conditions. In my talk, I will discussour published and unpublished work dissecting molecular mechanismsunderlying ESCpluripotency, somatic cell reprogramming, and totipotency-to-pluripotency transition during early development.
