Abstract
Somatic cell reprogramming by exogenous factors requires cooperation with transcriptional co-activators and co-repressors to effectively remodel the epigenetic environment. How this interplay is regulated remains poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that NCoR/SMRT co-repressors bind to pluripotency loci to create a barrier to reprogramming with the four Yamanaka factors (OCT4, SOX2, KLF4 and c-MYC), and consequently, suppressing NCoR/SMRT significantly enhances reprogramming efficiency and kinetics. The core epigenetic subunit of the NCoR/SMRT complex, histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3), contributes to the effects of NCoR/SMRT by inducing histone deacetylation at pluripotency loci. Among the Yamanaka factors, recruitment of NCoR/SMRT-HDAC3 to genomic loci is mostly facilitated by c-MYC. Hence, we describe how c-MYC is beneficial for the early phase of reprogramming but deleterious later. Overall, we uncover a role for NCoR/SMRT co-repressors in reprogramming and propose a dual function for c-MYC in this process.Entities:
