By changing the histone–DNA interaction, the nucleosomes in ESCs are less compacted than those in differentiated cells. Thus, histones, as well as other chromatin-binding proteins (red), can disassociate more easily from chromatin. pluripotency genes must be active in undifferentiated ESCs, their expression must be turned off upon differentiation. In contrast, developmental genes remain transcriptionally inactive in ESCs; during differentiation, some of these are activated while others are further silenced.
This suggests that miRNAs function in the silencing of ESC self-renewal that normally occurs with the induction of differentiation [126]. Many miRNA primary transcripts, including members of the Let-7 family, are present at high levels but are not processed by Drosha in ESCs [127]. Inhibition of the let-7 family promotes the de-differentiation of somatic cells to iPSCs [128]. As ESCs differentiate, the primary miRNA transcripts are processed to create mature miRNAs which then facilitate differentiation.
