Living Up to the Hype: Protein Synthesis Promotes Hypertranscription in Embryonic Stem Cells

The rapid proliferation and unlimited self-renewal of embryonic stem cells depends upon a permissive chromatin landscape that enables hypertranscription. In this issue of Cell Stem Cell, Bulut-Karslioglu et al. report that euchromatin and transcriptional output are enhanced by protein synthesis in embryonic stem cells (Bulut-Karslioglu et al., 2018).
