High throughput screening identifies SOX2 as a super pioneer factor that inhibits DNA methylation maintenance at its binding sites
The functional relevance of epigenetic modifications on transcription regulation has been an important question since their discovery. Here, the authors investigate the effect of DNA methylation on Pioneer Transcription Factor (PF) binding and distinguish between PFs that protect their binding sites...
