Journal ArticleDOI

DNA methylation is required for the control of stem cell differentiation in the small intestine

TL;DR: Determination of the base-resolution DNA methylome in intestinal stem cells and their differentiated descendants shows that DNA methylation is dynamic at enhancers, which are often associated with genes important for both stem cell maintenance and differentiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Epigenetic regulation of intestinal stem cells by Tet1-mediated DNA hydroxymethylation.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the role of TET hydroxylases in the development of the intestinal stem cells and showed that Tet1-mediated DNA hydroxymethylation plays a critical role in the epigenetic regulation of the Wnt pathway in intestinal stem and progenitor cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

5-hydroxymethylcytosine represses the activity of enhancers in embryonic stem cells: a new epigenetic signature for gene regulation

TL;DR: It is suggested that 5hmC is a new epigenetic mark for silenced enhancers, and has a repressive role at specific proximal and distal regulatory regions in mESCs, and is inversely correlated with RNA polymerase II occupancy.
