“…Comparative analyses of rodent and primate EPI defines conserved core pluripotency factors, in addition to POU5F1, SOX2 and NANOG. These include TFCP2L1 (Martello et al, 2013;Ye et al, 2013), ZSCAN10, shown to promote genomic stability in mouse embryonic stem cells (Skamagki et al, 2017), ZNF296, a component of heterochromatin (Matsuura et al, 2017) reported to enhance reprogramming efficiency (Fischedick et al, 2012) and interact with KLF4 (Fujii et al, 2013), ZFP36L1, a zinc-finger RNA-binding protein attenuating protein synthesis (Stoecklin et al, 2002) and…”
