Project description:Precisely co-ordinated activation of lineage specific transcription factors direct cell fate decisions during mouse early development. The T-box transcription factor Eomes is dynamically expressed during mouse gastrulation and is a key regulator of the anterior visceral endoderm (AVE), cardiac mesoderm and definitive endoderm (DE) lineages. The cis-acting regulatory elements that direct spatiotemporally restricted Eomes expression domains have yet to be elucidated. To understand transcriptional regulation of Eomes in Definitive Endoderm open chromatin data was generated by ATAC-seq and histone modifications identified by ChIP-seq. Interactions at the Eomes locus and the loci of two related transcription factors Foxa2 and Lhx1, was also determined by NG Capture-C.
