It is well-known that embryonic stem cells (ESC) are much more sensitive to replication-induced stress than differentiated cells but the underpinning mechanisms are largely unknown. H2A.X, a minor variant of H2A, constitutes only 1-10% of the mammalian genome. H2A.X plays a well-known for role in t...

With the advent of the induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) technology, how to distinguish the developmental potentials of the iPSC clones with molecular approaches becomes an imperative issue. Herein, we demonstrated that histone variant H2A.X plays an unexpected role in distinguishing the develop...

Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are commonly generated by transduction of Oct4, Sox2, Klf4 and Myc (OSKM) into somatic cells. Though iPSCs are pluripotent, they frequently exhibit high variation in their quality as measured by chimera contribution and tetraploid (4n) complementation. Thus, im...

Herein, we demonstrated that the cell lineage commitment is unexpectedly regulated by the novel functions of H2A.X, a histone variant which was only well-known for its role in genome integrity maintenance previously. Surprisingly, only in ESCs but not differentiated cells, H2A.X is specifically targ...

ORGANISM(S): Mus musculus 
The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), considered essential for metastatic cancer, has been a focus of much research, but important questions remain. Here, we show that silencing or removing H2A.X, a histone H2A variant involved in cellular DNA repair and robust growth, induced mesenchymal-lik...
ORGANISM(S): Homo sapiens 
Here we demonstrate the generation of stable induced trophoblast stem cells (iTSCs) from fibroblasts by the transient expression of Gata3, Eomes and Tfap2c. Transcriptome and methylome analyses and functional assays such as hemorrhagic lesion formation and placenta contribution suggested a high deg...

H2A.X promotes endosperm-specific DNA methylation in Arabidopsis thaliana
It has widely accepted that 5-methylcytosine is the only form of DNA methylation in mammalian genomes, whereas the other forms, such as N6-methyladenine, primarily exist in prokaryotes and only a few eukaryotes. Herein, we demonstrated the surprising presence of N6-methyladenine in mammalian genome...
