Abstract
Although the interactors of pluripotency factors have been identified in mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs), their interactors in human ESCs remain unexplored. Here the authors map OCT4 protein interactions in naïve and primed human ESCs to find specific interactions with BAF subunits that promote an open chromatin architecture at blastocyst-associated genes and ectodermal genes, respectively.
