Core Transcriptional Regulatory Circuitry in Human Embryonic Stem Cells
Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in pluripotent and lineage-committed cells
TLDR
The application of single-molecule-based sequencing technology for high-throughput profiling of histone modifications in mammalian cells is reported and it is shown that chromatin state can be read in an allele-specific manner by using single nucleotide polymorphisms.
A Bivalent Chromatin Structure Marks Key Developmental Genes in Embryonic Stem Cells
Histone H3K27ac separates active from poised enhancers and predicts developmental state
TLDR
The epigenetic landscape of enhancer elements in embryonic stem cells and several adult tissues in the mouse is interrogated and it is found that histone H3K27ac distinguishes active enhancers from inactive/poised enhancers and poised enhancer networks provide clues to unrealized developmental programs.
Epigenetic regulation of gene expression: how the genome integrates intrinsic and environmental signals
TLDR
Advances in the understanding of the mechanism and role of DNA methylation in biological processes are reviewed, showing that epigenetic mechanisms seem to allow an organism to respond to the environment through changes in gene expression.
Polycomb complexes repress developmental regulators in murine embryonic stem cells
TLDR
It is shown that PcG proteins directly repress a large cohort of developmental regulators in murine ES cells, the expression of which would otherwise promote differentiation, and dynamic repression of developmental pathways by Polycomb complexes may be required for maintaining ES cell pluripotency and plasticity during embryonic development.
Genome-scale DNA methylation maps of pluripotent and differentiated cells
TLDR
Low-throughput reduced representation bisulphite sequencing is established as a powerful technology for epigenetic profiling of cell populations relevant to developmental biology, cancer and regenerative medicine.
Deficiency of methyl-CpG binding protein-2 in CNS neurons results in a Rett-like phenotype in mice
TLDR
The results indicate that the role of MECp2 is not restricted to the immature brain, but becomes critical in mature neurons, and that Mecp2 deficiency in these neurons is sufficient to cause neuronal dysfunction with symptomatic manifestation similar to Rett syndrome.
Chromatin signature reveals over a thousand highly conserved large non-coding RNAs in mammals
TLDR
It is demonstrated that specific lincRNAs are transcriptionally regulated by key transcription factors in these processes such as p53, NFκB, Sox2, Oct4 (also known as Pou5f1) and Nanog, defining a unique collection of functional linc RNAs that are highly conserved and implicated in diverse biological processes.
