The epigenetic pioneer EGR2 initiates DNA demethylation in differentiating monocytes at both stable and transient binding sites

DNA methylation turnover is an essential epigenetic process during development. Here, the authors look at the changes in DNA methylation during the differentiation of post-mitotic human monocytes (MO), and find that EGR2 interacts with TET2 and is required for DNA demethylation at its binding sites;...
