Project description:The effect of genotype and in utero environment on inter-individual variation in neonate DNA methylomes (genotypes)

Project description:A major concern in common disease epigenomics is distinguishing causal from consequential epigenetic variation. One means of addressing this issue is to identify the temporal origins of epigenetic variants via longitudinal analyses. However, prospective birth-cohort studies are expensive and time-consuming. Here we report DNA methylomics of archived Guthrie cards for the retrospective longitudinal analyses of in utero-derived DNA methylation variation. We first validate two methodologies for generating comprehensive DNA methylomes from Guthrie cards. Then, using an integrated epigenomic/genomic analysis of Guthrie cards and follow-up samplings, we identify inter-individual DNA methylation variation that is present both at birth and three years later. These findings suggest that disease-relevant epigenetic variation could be detected at birth i.e. before overt clinical disease. Guthrie card methylomics offers a potentially powerful and cost-effective strategy for studying the dynamics of inter-individual epigenomic variation in a range of common human diseases. Bisulphite converted DNA was hybridised to the Illumina Infinium 450k Human Methylation Beadchip

Project description:Analysis of the extent to which inter-individual variation in mRNA decay contributes to inter-individual variation in gene expression levels in humans. The study examines properties of genome-wide decay rates and the relationship between mRNA decay and gene expression across genes, across individuals, and finally across genotype classes.

Project description:Inter-individual variation among worms in a shared environment
| PRJNA386108 | ENA
Project description:We surveyed the genotypes and DNA methylomes of 237 neonates and found 1423 punctate regions of the methylome that were highly variable across individuals, termed variably methylated regions (VMRs), against a backdrop of homogeneity. Although methQTLs were readily detected in neonatal methylomes, genotype alone did not explain the majority of the VMRs. We found that the best explanation for 75% of VMRs was the interaction of genotype with different in utero environments, including maternal smoking, maternal depression, maternal BMI, infant birth weight, gestational age and birth order. We surveyed the genotypes and DNA methylomes of 237 neonates and included 32 technical replicates
