Project description:We report time-series transcriptome of developing bamboo shark fin buds and mouse forelimb buds, and open chromatin regions of developing mouse forelimb buds. The major contributions of this study are 1) transcriptomic data with an accurate orthology map for a systematic comparison between the two species; 2) high quality chromatin accessibility data for mouse limb development; 3) discovery of mass heterochronic genes between fins and limbs; 4) hourglass-shaped conservation between fins and limbs, providing insights into a general trend of gene regulatory evolution.

Project description:Using the super-resolution microscopy methods of OligoSTORM and OligoDNA-PAINT, we trace 8 megabases of human chromosome 19, visualizing structures ranging in size from a few kilobases to over a megabase. Focusing on chromosomal regions that contribute to compartments identified with chromosome conformation capture, with our imaging we discover distinct structures that, in spite of considerable variability, can predict whether such regions correspond to active (A-type) or inactive (B-type) compartments. Imaging through the depths of an entire nuclei, we capture pairs of homologous regions in diploid cells, obtaining evidence that maternal and paternal homologous regions can be differentially organized. Finally, using restraint-based modeling to integrate imaging and Hi-C data, we implement a method – integrative modeling of genomic regions (IMGR) – to increase the genomic resolution of our traces to 10 kb.

Project description:Bamboo represents the only major lineage of grasses that is native to forests and is one of the most important non-timber forest products in the world. Moso bamboo is a large woody bamboo that has ecological, economic and cultural value in Asia and accounts for ~70% of the total bamboo growth area (Peng et al., 2013). In the aspect of epigenetics of Moso bamboo,the total genomic DNA methylation rates in Moso bamboo at different chronological ages were significantly different (Yuan et al., 2014). Those show that the flowering of Moso bamboo are closely related to epigenetic modification. However, DNA methylation in single base resolution has never been reported in moso bamboo. In this study, leaves from three-week bamboo, one-year bamboo, flower in next year bamboo, flowering bamboo and Flower florets was used for bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq), and RNA-Seq. Genome-wide methylation profile and gene expression analysis were constructed to reveal the factors to regualte the phase transition from vegetative to reproductive growth in moso bamboo.
