Extended Data Fig. 3: Zfp462 expression analysis and impact of Zfp462 deletion on ESC morphology and gene expression.

a) UMAP plots visualize lineage assignments of cells in mouse embryonic developmental stages (embryonic day (E) E4.5 cells, E5.5 cells and E6.5-7 cells) as previously described (Wolf Reik et.al) (top). UMAP plots of Zfp462 RNA expression at corresponding developmental stages (bottom). b) Sanger sequence chromatograms of heterozygous Zfp462 mutants. Heterozygous non-sense mutations are highlighted in grey. c) Alkaline phosphatase staining of Zfp462 +/Y1195* and Zfp462 −/− cl.2 ESCs (scale bar = 100 μm). d) Correlation plot shows principal component analysis (PCA) of replicate RNA-seq experiments from WT, two Zfp462 +/− and two Zfp462 −/− ESC lines. e) Volcano plot shows differential gene expression of Zfp462 −/− cl.2 ESCs compared to WT ESCs. (n = three replicates). f) Bar plots show gene ontology (GO) terms enriched in the four clusters of heatmap in Fig. 3e.
