dc.description.abstractMEK inhibition in combination with a glycogen synthase kinase-3β (GSK3β) inhibitor, referred as the 2i condition, favors pluripotency in embryonic stem cells (ESCs). However, the mechanisms by which the 2i condition limits ESC differentiation and whether RAS proteins are involved in this phenomenon remain poorly understood. Here we show that RAS nullyzygosity reduces the growth of mouse ESCs (mESCs) and prohibits their differentiation. Upon RAS deficiency or MEK inhibition, ERF (E twenty-six 2 [Ets2]-repressive factor), a transcriptional repressor from the ETS domain family, translocates to the nucleus, where it binds to the enhancers of pluripotency factors and key RAS targets. Remarkably, deletion of Erf rescues the proliferative defects of RAS-devoid mESCs and restores their capacity to differentiate. Furthermore, we show that Erf loss enables the development of RAS nullyzygous teratomas. In summary, this work reveals an essential role for RAS proteins in pluripotency and identifies ERF as a key mediator of the response to RAS/MEK/ERK inhibition in mESCs.es_ES

dc.description.sponsorshipWe thank Cian Lynch, Jorge Monsech, and Diego Megias for their help with microarray, ChIP-seq, and high-throughput microscopy analyses. We also thank Dr. Manuel Serrano and Dr. André Nussenzweig for their input on the manuscript, and Dr. Diego Sanz for his support throughout the project. C.M.-R. was funded by a PhD fellowship from La Caixa Foundation, T.O. was funded by a PhD fellowship from the Boehringer Ingelheim Fonds, and S.R. was funded by a Ramon y Cajal contract (RYC-2011-09242). Research was funded by Fundación Botín and Banco Santander through its Santander Universities Global Division; grants from the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (SAF2011-23753 and SAF2014- 57791-REDC; these projects were cofinanced with European Fonds Européen de Développement Économique et Régional [FEDER] funds), Fundació La Marato de TV3, Howard Hughes Medical Institute, and the European Research Council (ERC- 617840) to O.F.-C.; and grants from the Spanish Ministryof Economy and Competitiveness (SAF2013-49147-P and SAF2016-80874-P; these projects were cofinanced with European FEDER funds) to S.R. Author contributions: C.M.-R. and S.R. conducted most of the experiments; T.O. helped with the characterization of RASlox/lox mESCs and with ERF localization studies; E.L. helped with ChIP-seq experiments; M.D., S.O., and M.B. contributed to the work on RAS-deficient cells; M.V.-S. provided technical help; O.D. helped with genomics experiments and bioinformatics analysis; and S.R. and O.F.-C. coordinated the study and wrote the manuscript.es_ES
