Integrative analysis of 111 reference human epigenomes

Anshul Kundaje, +123 more
- 19 Feb 2015 - 
TL;DR: It is shown that disease- and trait-associated genetic variants are enriched in tissue-specific epigenomic marks, revealing biologically relevant cell types for diverse human traits, and providing a resource for interpreting the molecular basis of human disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of 67 Histone Marks and Histone Lysine Crotonylation as a New Type of Histone Modification

TL;DR: The identification of 67 previously undescribed histone modifications is reported, increasing the current number of known histone marks by about 70%, and lysine crotonylation (Kcr) is investigated, confirming that it represents an evolutionarily-conserved histone posttranslational modification.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chromatin architecture reorganization during stem cell differentiation

TL;DR: Mapping genome-wide chromatin interactions in human embryonic stem cells and four human ES-cell-derived lineages reveals extensive chromatin reorganization during lineage specification, providing a global view of chromatin dynamics and a resource for studying long-range control of gene expression in distinct human cell lineages.
