Biological function summary
Nanog plays a central role in stem cell biology operating as part of a complex regulatory network. Nanog interacts with other important transcription factors like Oct4 and Sox2 forming a core pluripotency network. This network suppresses the differentiation of stem cells by regulating the expression of genes involved in cell fate decisions. By modulating the expression of different pathways Nanog ensures the maintenance of an undifferentiated state in stem cells.
Pathways
Nanog is deeply embedded in the Wnt/β-Catenin and TGF-β signaling pathways important for stem cell maintenance and differentiation. In the Wnt/β-Catenin pathway Nanog works alongside proteins like β-catenin to drive the expression of genes that promote self-renewal. Meanwhile in the TGF-β pathway Nanog acts with proteins such as Smad2/3 to balance pluripotency and differentiation signals. These pathways critically support the complex network that sustains stem cell identity and function.

General info
Function
Transcription regulator involved in inner cell mass and embryonic stem (ES) cells proliferation and self-renewal. Imposes pluripotency on ES cells and prevents their differentiation towards extraembryonic endoderm and trophectoderm lineages. Blocks bone morphogenetic protein-induced mesoderm differentiation of ES cells by physically interacting with SMAD1 and interfering with the recruitment of coactivators to the active SMAD transcriptional complexes. Acts as a transcriptional activator or repressor. Binds optimally to the DNA consensus sequence 5'-TAAT[GT][GT]-3' or 5'-[CG][GA][CG]C[GC]ATTAN[GC]-3'. Binds to the POU5F1/OCT4 promoter (PubMed : 25825768). Able to autorepress its expression in differentiating (ES) cells : binds to its own promoter following interaction with ZNF281/ZFP281, leading to recruitment of the NuRD complex and subsequent repression of expression. When overexpressed, promotes cells to enter into S phase and proliferation.
