Chromatin decompaction coupled MuERVL endogenous retrovirus activation induces genome-wide DNA demethylation
Mouse embryonic stem cells are heterogeneous and contain rare cells expressing transcripts normally upregulated in pre-implantation embryos, including the Zscan4 cluster and MuERVL endogenous retrovirus. Through single cell transcriptomics and genome-wide chromatin and DNA methylation analyses we uncover the dynamics of the regulation and epigenetic consequences of these transient cells. Transcriptional activation of MuERVL and Zscan4 coincided with a global increase in chromatin accessibility....
