Abstract: Evidence from various models of cell fate programming and reprogramming supports the hypothesis that a common machinery controls all cell fate decisions. We have proposed a “open-close and close to open or OCCO” working model for this machine at the chromatin level. Current effort focus on further identifying components of this machine that impact 3D genome organization during transitions between Toti-, naive and primed potencies in preimplantation embryo. The resulting insights have inspired us to design artificial cell fate regulators that work on the cell fate machinery.
