摘要: |
染色质免疫共沉淀技术(ChIP)作为研究DNA 结合蛋白与DNA 相互作用最有力的工具, 越 来越受到重视。但目前该技术在牡蛎等贝类中的应用尚未见相关报道。为了研究长牡蛎早期胚胎发 育过程中表观遗传信息的变化模式, 本文在长牡蛎胚胎中探索并建立了一套完整的染色质免疫共沉 淀方法, 构建了高质量的高通量测序文库, 首次获得了牡蛎全基因组水平的组蛋白H3K4me3 修饰分 布, 从而为研究牡蛎的表观遗传调控奠定了基础。 |

Abstract: |
Chromatin immunoprecipitation coupled with high throughput sequencing (ChIP-seq) is a powerful tool to analyze DNA-protein interactions. However, the application of ChIP-seq in Crassostrea gigas has not been investigated. In this study, we established a protocol for performing ChIP-seq experiment in oyster early embryos. We successfully performed H3K4me3 ChIP-seq on 16-cell stage oyster embryo and revealed the genome-wide distribution of the H3K4me3 histone marks. This study is the first step toward understanding the epigenetic regulation of oyster embryogenesis. |
