Abstract excerpt
Rett syndrome arises from loss-of-function mutations in the X-linked chromatin regulator MECP2, yet the earliest molecular derailments in development are poorly defined. Using isogenic human embryonic stem cell (hESC) models carrying three patient-derived MECP2 mutations, we followed the transcriptome from pluripotency through neuroectoderm, neural stem/progenitor stages. Developmental stage dominated...
