Project description:We explored the role of the lysine-methyltrasferase G9a in the control of DNA methylation during mouse embryogenesis. We provide maps of cytosine methylation by MeDIP and RRBS in G9a-deficient mouse embryos and ES cells, as well as ChIP-Seq profiles for H3K9me2 in embryos and RNA-Seq expression profiles in G9a-deficient embryos.

Project description:Aging is classically conceptualized as an ever-increasing trajectory of damage accumulation and loss of function, leading to increases in morbidity and mortality. However, recent in vitro studies have raised the possibility of age reversal. We characterized several models in which biological age, assessed primarily through analysis of DNA methylation, undergoes reversible changes. Pregnancy is one such example.
