Asymmetric histone inheritance can regulate cell-fate determination in Drosophila male germline stem cells. However, it remains elusive how this mechanism may be used in mammalian system. Recently, we show mouse embryonic stem cells (mESCs) with Wnt3a beads display non-overlapping H3/H4 patterns. Here, we present a detailed protocol for tracking histone inheritance in asymmetrically dividing mESCs at single-cell resolution. This protocol will establish a new system to study histone inheritance in cultured mammalian cells and could be applied to other parallel systems. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Tran et al. (2012), Habib et al. (2013), Lowndes et al. (2017), and Ma et al. (2020).
