The goal of this project is to deliver a new theoretical framework to understand how transcription factors (TFs) sustain cell identity during developmental processes. Recognised as key drivers of cell fate acquisition, TFs are […]

The study of ES cells has not escaped the recent explosion of regulatory lncRNA biology: from the thousands of lncRNAs that have been identified across the mouse genome a large subset is expressed in […]

The preservation of pluripotency throughout cell division – self-renewal -, is strictly dependent on the highly efficient action of the pluripotency gene regulatory network. However, how TFs cope with replication and mitosis, two major […]

Self-renewing ES cells display dramatic cell-to-cell variability in the expression level of key transcription factors such as Nanog. Whereas Nanog-positive cells self-renew efficiently, Nanog-negative cells are prone to differentiate. Although these two populations can dynamically inter-convert, very […]
