LINE1 and PRC2 control nucleolar organization and repression of the 8C-state in human ESCs [RNA-Seq_RSeT+DT_H9_L1KD]
To study L1 knockdown effect in RSeT+DT naïve hES cells Overall design: In this study, we investigated LINE1 (L1), a major family of transposon elements (TEs) in the human genome, in naive hES cells for its roles in regulating 8-cell (8C) stage-specific totipotent genes. RSeT media maintained naive H9 hES cells were transfected with non-specific targeting control anti-sense oligos (ASO-Ctr), L1 targeting sense oligos (SO-L1) and anti-sense oligos (ASO-L1), respectively. Transfected cells were maintained in the RSeT media added with 10 nM DZNep and 5nM TSA (RSeT+DT). 48 hours later, cells were directly processed for RNA extraction and RNA-seq library prep.
