General Information Comment Organism
physiological function SETDB1 is an epigenetic regulator of primordial germ cell fate determination. SETDB1-deficient embryos exhibit drastic reduction of nascent primordial germ cells. Dppa2, Otx2 and Utf1 are derepressed whereas mesoderm development-related genes, including BMP4 signaling-related genes, are downregulated by SETDB1 knockdown during primordial germ cell-like cell induction. Binding of SETDB1 is observed at the flanking regions of Dppa2, Otx2 and Utf1 in cell aggregates containing primordial germ cell-like cell induction, and trimethylation of lysine 9 of histone H3 is reduced by SETDB1 knockdown at those regions Mus musculus
