Abstract
It’s crucial for skin to establish efficient defense strategies. Liu et al. reveal that the transcription factor ZNF750 recruits the histone demethylase KDM1A to silence pattern recognition receptors in the outer epidermis, making their expression limited to deeper, undifferentiated keratinocytes to address threats penetrating the skin.
