IP of 5-methylcytosine (5-mC) enriched DNA fragments from control and PB treated mouse livers (7 day)
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: 5-mC is an epigenetic modification of the DNA base cytosine with roles in gene silencing events, imprinting and X inactivation. Phenobarbital (PB) is a well studied non-genotoxic carcinogen with roles in epigenetic perturbation. We profile 5mC in both control mouse livers as well as in the livers of 7 day PB treated mice. 5mC is largely found to reside in the bodies of active genes and promoter levels are perturbed upon PB induced gene activation events. 5-mC is assocated with promoters fo silent genes. Upon PB exposire a handfull of genes are induced which reveal decreases in promoter 5mC levels
