Abstract

Naïve pluripotent stem cells from distinct inbred mouse strains exhibit variable DNA methylation levels at imprinted gene loci.The vulnerability of pluripotent stem cells to loss of genomic imprinting caused by MAP kinase inhibition strongly differs between inbred mouse strains.Genetically diverse pluripotent stem cell lines from Diversity Outbred mouse stock allow the identification of quantitative trait loci controlling DNA methylation stability.Genetic variants may serve as biomarkers to identify naïve pluripotent stem cell lines that are epigenetically stable in specific culture conditions.
