TLDR
It is demonstrated in macrophages and B cells that collaborative interactions of the common factor PU.1 with small sets of macrophage- or B cell lineage-determining transcription factors establish cell-specific binding sites that are associated with the majority of promoter-distal H3K4me1-marked genomic regions.

Placeholder Nucleosomes Underlie Germline-to-Embryo DNA Methylation Reprogramming.

TL;DR: During transcriptionally quiescent gametic and embryonic stages, an H2A.Z(FV)/H3K4me1-containing Placeholder nucleosome deters DNA methylation, poising parental genes for either gene-specific activation or facultative repression.

Next generation transcriptomics and genomics elucidate biological complexity of microglia in health and disease

TL;DR: In this review, insights obtained from isolated microglia transcriptome studies are presented, and compared to studies using other genome‐wide approaches, as well as the role ofmicroglia in the aging brain and in neurodegenerative conditions are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

In the loop: promoter–enhancer interactions and bioinformatics

TL;DR: This review provides a comprehensive background for future PEI studies and critically review different types of bioinformatics analysis methods and tools related to representation and visualization of PEI data, raw data processing and PEI prediction.

Genome-wide analysis of STAT3 binding in vivo predicts effectors of the anti-inflammatory response in macrophages

TL;DR: The genomic targets of STAT3 are reported and it is shown that STAT3's transcriptional program during the AIR is highly specific to IL-10-stimulated macrophages, thatSTAT3 is a positive transcriptional regulator, and the authors predict severalputative AIR factors that merit further investigation.

High-resolution profiling of histone methylations in the human genome.

TL;DR: High-resolution maps for the genome-wide distribution of 20 histone lysine and arginine methylations as well as histone variant H2A.Z, RNA polymerase II, and the insulator binding protein CTCF across the human genome using the Solexa 1G sequencing technology are generated.

RAG-1-deficient mice have no mature B and T lymphocytes

TL;DR: The introduction of a mutation in RAG-1 into the germline of mice via gene targeting in embryonic stem cells is described and it is shown that this mutation either activates or catalyzes the V(D)J recombination reaction of immunoglobulin and T cell receptor genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-scale DNA methylation maps of pluripotent and differentiated cells

TL;DR: 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.
