Integrated Epigenetic Maps of Human Embryonic, Extraembryonic and Adult Cells


ABSTRACT:

Working cooperatively with other Mapping Centers and the Data Coordination Center (EDACC) funded by this Roadmap mechanism we have comprehensively mapped the epigenomes of select human cells with significant relevance to complex human disease. Our effort has been focused on cells relevant to human health and complex disease including cells from the blood, brain, breast, skin, male germ cells, extraembryonic tissues and trophoblast, and U.S. Government-approved lines of human embryonic stem cells. We have incorporated high quality, homogeneous cells from males and females, and two predominant racial groups, and biological replicates of each cell type. The resulting comprehensive maps include up to 6 histone modifications selected for their opposing roles in regulating active and inactive chromatin (H3K4me1, H3K4me3, H3K9me3, H3K9ac, H3K27ac, H3K27me3, H3K36me3), DNA methylation, miRNA and gene expression, and for select cases whole genome shotgun sequence. Our cell and data production pipeline incorporates verification and data validation with independent methods, and operates under a model motivated by increased data production and decrease cost. Our group in conjunction with the other REMC teams, the EDACC, ENCODE, Epigenetics of Human Health and Disease centers and the NIH Roadmap program are developing methods, tools and reference epigenome maps for the research community that will make the promise of epigenetics in understand and treating human complex disease a reality. Our reference epigenomes will enable new disciplines including human population epigenetics, comparative epigenomics, neuroepigenetics, and therapeutic epigenetics for tissue regeneration and reversal of disease.
