A model for genetic and epigenetic regulatory networks identifies rare pathways for transcription factor induced pluripotency.

With relatively low efficiency, differentiated cells can be reprogrammed to a pluripotent state by ectopic expression of a few transcription factors. An understanding of the mechanisms that underlie data emerging from such experiments can help design optimal strategies for creating pluripotent cells...
