Summary (written by the submitters)
High levels of the type II topoisomerase α (Top2a) play a crucial role in maintaining the stemness of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, the mechanisms governing Top2a's ESC-specific function remain largely unknown. Here, using an unbiased proteomic approach, we discovered Trim28, along with subunits of various chromatin remodeling complexes and modifiers, among the top interactors of Top2a on ESC chromatin.

We demonstrate that Top2a directly interacts with Trim28 in an ESC-specific manner. Functionally, Trim28 can promote Top2a expression, and synergize with Top2a in maintaining stemness of ESCs as well as promoting induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) generation. Genome-wide approaches reveal that Top2a-Trim28 co-regulated genes contribute to glycolysis and self-renewal, and Top2a fine-tunes promoter activity by recruiting Trim28 to co-activated genes and displacing PRC2 to co-repressed genes. Remarkably, targeting Top2a in combination with Trim28 in breast cancer stem cells shows an extremely synergistic anti-tumorigenic effect. Therefore, Top2a collaborates with Trim28 in ESCs to fulfill its cell type-specific functions, which may highlight the therapeutic strategy of combinational targeting of Top2a and Trim28 to combat cancer stem cells.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE257545_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1080198 and SRA study SRP491601. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
16 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 16 sample titles: 16 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
