Project description:We developed a ChIP protocol for the analysis of histone marks using less than 10,000 cells per IP, and used it to investigate the chromatin state of E11.5 mouse primordial germ cells (PGCs). A genome-wide ChIP-Seq analysis of E11.5 PGCs revealed a distribution of H3K4me3/H3K27me3 bivalent domains highly enriched for developmental regulatory genes. H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 ChIP-Seq from mouse E11.5 primordial germ cells.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of individual mouse embryonic (e11.5) XY gonads comparing inbred strains that are sensitive (C57BL/6J) and resistant (129S1/SvImJ) to XY sex reversal, and their reciprocal F1 hybrids. Experiment Overall Design: Two-color Agilent microarray profiles of 20 individual pairs of e11.5 XY gonads, including 5- C57BL/6J, 5- 129S1/SvImJ, 5- (B6x129S1)F1, and 5- (129S1xB6)F1 samples. Within each strain, samples were collected from multiple litters to account for potential litter biases. All samples were processed following the same protocol.

Project description:We constructed a comparative proteome profile of female mouse fetal gonads at specific time points (11.5, 12.5, and 13.5 days post coitum), spanning a critical window for initiation of meiosis in female germ cells. We identified 3666 proteins, of which 473 were differentially expressed.
Project description:To elucidate the function of NANOS2 to regulate the transcriptome in embryonic male germ cells, we performed expression microarray analysis of the embyornic gonads of the Nanos2+/-, Nanos2-/- male and wild type female from E12.5 to E15.5. The Nanos2+/- and Nanos2-/- female gonads at E15.5 were analyzed as a negative control.
Project description:This study describes the epigenetic profiling of the X chromosome during X inactivation. It includes H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 ChIP-Seq profiles of male (E14) and female (LF2 and XT67E1) mouse ES cells, together with their differentiated derivatives (either 4d atRA or 10d EB). It also includes ChIP-chip profiles around the Xic on chromosome X of H3K4me3, H3K27me3, H3K9me2, H3K36me3, Pol II, TBP, H3-Core as well as expression, using male (E14) and female (LF2) mouse ES cells, together with their differentiated derivatives (either 4d atRA or 10d EB). Examination of two different histone modifications in 3 cell lines under 3 conditions using ChIP-Seq. Examination of five different histone modifications two transcription factors and gene expression under three conditions in 2 cell lines using ChIP-chip.
