H3K36 Histone Methyltransferase Setd2 Is Required for Murine Embryonic Stem Cell Differentiation toward Endoderm

Setd2 is known as a histone-H3K36-specific methyltransferase. However, its role in physiological function remains unclear. In this study, we show that Setd2 mainly regulates differentiation of murine embryonic stem cells (mESCs) toward primitive endoderm. Furthermore, we show that downregulated endo...
