Deletion of Tet proteins results in quantitative disparities during ESC differentiation partially attributable to alterations in gene expression

Abstract Background The Tet protein family (Tet1, Tet2, and Tet3) regulate DNA methylation through conversion of 5-methylcytosine to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine which can ultimately result in DNA demethylation and play a critical role during early mammalian development and pluripotency. While multiple g...
