Hendrickson C, Blitz I, Hussein A, Paraiso K, Cho J, Klymkowsky M, et al.
bioRxiv . 2025 Jan; PMID: 39829826
In vertebrates, germ layer specification represents a critical transition where pluripotent cells acquire lineage-specific identities. We identify the maternal transcription factors Foxi2 and Sox3 to be pivotal master regulators of...
