MeSH definition : A homeodomain protein and transcription regulator that functions in BLASTOCYST INNER
CELL MASS and EMBRYONIC STEM CELL proliferation and CELL SELF RENEWAL. It confers
pluripotency on embryonic stem cells and prevents their differentiation towards extraembryonic
ENDODERM and trophectoderm (TROPHOBLAST) CELL LINEAGES.;
