NANOG Proximity Proteomics Maps Neighborhood Hubs Linked to Mesenchymal Stem Cell Stemness and Chromatin Control

labeling) samples, consistent with a broad NANOG-centered neighborhood rather than a single stoichiometric complex. Enriched proteins encompass RNA-processing pathways (including splicing/RNP factors and selected m6A-related proteins), transcriptional coactivation and elongation control (Mediator and 7SK/P-TEFb regulators), chromatin repression/poising modules (Polycomb and HDAC/NuRD/CoREST/SIN3), ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling (BAF/SWI-SNF), three-dimensional genome organization and replication-coupled chromatin maintenance (CTCF/cohesin, CHAF1A, RIF1, UHRF1), and regulators of MSC identity and signal integration (Hippo/mechanotransduction and TGFβ-linked transcriptional circuits). Together, these data provide a spatial proteomic map of NANOG-associated nuclear neighborhoods in MSCs and a foundation for mechanistic hypotheses for how NANOG may stabilize stem-like programs.
