Journal ArticleDOI

Sperm methylation profiles reveal features of epigenetic inheritance and evolution in primates

TL;DR: The methylomes of human and chimp sperm revealed a subset of differentially methylated promoters and strikingly divergent methylation in retrotransposon subfamilies, with an evolutionary impact that is apparent in the underlying genomic sequence.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Reference Methylome Database and Analysis Pipeline to Facilitate Integrative and Comparative Epigenomics

TL;DR: MethPipe, a pipeline for both low and high-level methylome analysis, and MethBase, an accompanying database of annotated methylomes from the public domain, enable researchers to extract interesting features from methylomes and compare them with those identified in public methylomes in the database.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genomic landscape of human allele-specific DNA methylation

TL;DR: A statistical model is presented to describe allele-specific methylation (ASM) in data from high-throughput short-read bisulfite sequencing and suggests it provides the analytical complement to cutting-edge experimental technologies for surveying ASM in specific cell types and across species.
Journal ArticleDOI

DNA methylation dynamics during intestinal stem cell differentiation reveals enhancers driving gene expression in the villus.

TL;DR: The first genome-wide, single-base-resolution view into DNA methylation dynamics during differentiation of a mammalian epithelial stem cell: the mouse small intestinal Lgr5+ stem cell is presented and it is demonstrated that Tcf4 is one of the factors contributing to formation of differentially methylated regions.
Journal ArticleDOI

FOXP1 potentiates Wnt/β-catenin signaling in diffuse large B cell lymphoma

TL;DR: It is found that FoxP1 promoted sensitivity to Wnt pathway inhibitors, and knockdown of FOXP1 or blocking β-catenin transcriptional activity slowed xenograft tumor growth in diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL), which is a predictor of poor prognosis and resistance to therapy.
