IRX3 controls a SUMOylation-dependent differentiation switch in adipocyte precursor cells

Abstract IRX3 is linked to predisposition to obesity through the FTO locus and is upregulated during early adipogenesis in risk-allele carriers, shifting adipocyte fate toward fat storage. However, how this elevated IRX3 expression influences later developmental stages remains unclear. Here we show...
