ZFP148 is a transcriptional regulator of effector CD8+ T cell differentiation [single-cell_multiome]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Chronic antigen exposure, as seen in persistent viral infections and cancer, drives CD8⁺ T cells to differentiate into diverse subsets: progenitor/stem-like, effector, and exhausted/dysfunctional cells. While genetic and epigenetic factors influencing these subsets are known, the mechanisms regulating their dynamic balance remain unclear. We identified Zinc-Finger Protein 148 (ZFP148) as a novel transcriptional checkpoint in CD8⁺ T cell effector differentiation. Using a genetic approach that deletes ZFP148 specifically in CD8+ T cells, we performed matched single cell RNA-seq and ATAC-seq on antigen-specific CD8+ T cells.
