On August 9, an interview article of Yohei Hayashi was published on page 5 of  Nikkei Industrial NewsPaper. Thank you, Inomata-san (the writer)!

From my previous laboratory (Gene regulation laboratory in University of Tsukuba), an article titled “Live cell imaging of X chromosome reactivation during somatic cell reprogramming” has been published. We generated female mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) that carry two-colored fluorescent protein expression on both alleles in X chromosomes. The ESC clones, which initially expressed both EGFP and hKO, inactivated one of the fluorescent protein genes upon differentiation, indicating that the EGFP and hKO genes are subject to X chromosome inactivation (XCI). When the derived somatic cells carrying the EGFP gene on the inactive X chromosome (Xi) were reprogrammed into iPSCs, the EGFP gene on the Xi was reactivated when pluripotency marker Continue reading Published a co-authored article→
