β-actin regulates a heterochromatin landscape essential for optimal induction of neuronal programs during direct reprograming.

During neuronal development, β-actin serves an important role in growth cone mediated axon guidance. Consistent with this notion, in vivo ablation of the β-actin gene leads to abnormalities in the nervous system. However, whether β-actin is involved in the regulation of neuronal gene programs is not...
