Genome-wide methylated CpG status in WT and IRF8KO microglia [WGBS]
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The role of the lineage-determining transcription factor, Interferon regulatory factor (IRF8), in microglia remains elucidated. We report the genome-wide methyl-CpG status in adult wild-type (WT) and IRF8-knockout (IRF8KO) microglia by whole-genome bisulfite-Seq (WGBS). Deep-sequencing and subsequent differential analysis revealed that IRF8KO microglia exhibited a cell-intrinsic methylation profile. Furthermore, the differentially methylated regions showed a significant correlation with IRF8-dependent chromatin accessibility in microglia. This study provides a novel insight into understanding epigenetic regulation in microglia.
