Description | Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are crucial for regenerating cells and modeling diseases, yet the process is inefficient due to a lack of understanding of human-specific reprogramming mechanisms. This study examines the changes in chromatin accessibility as human iPSCs are induced from urine cells, revealing a slower closure of somatic loci in humans compared to mice. A conserved AP-1 motif is significantly enriched in these closed regions. Introducing the AP-1 repressor JDP2 improves human reprogramming and the activation of pluripotent genes, whereas known pluripotency factors like ESRRB, KDM2B, and SALL4 do not enhance human iPSC generation. JDP2 promotes the closure of somatic loci with AP-1 motifs, facilitating human reprogramming, and can compensate for the absence of MYC or KLF4. The findings suggest that AP-1 activity is a key obstacle in chromatin remodeling during the reprogramming of somatic cells. |
