Project description:Pregnant C3H mice were given tap water (control group) and tap water containing 85 ppm sodium arsenite from gestational day 8 to 18 (arsenic group), respectively. The DNA methylomes of testis of F2 mice were investigated by RRBS method.

Project description:Pregnant C3H mice were given tap water (control group) and tap water containing 85 ppm sodium arsenite from gestational day 8 to 18 (arsenic group), respectively. The DNA methylomes of sperm of F1 mice were investigated by RRBS method. The results showed that gestational arsenic exposure increased hypomethylated cytosines in active retrotransposon subfamilies. The present study has indicated environmental impacts on sperm DNA methylome establishment.

Project description:In this study we examined an anaerobic digester reactor fed with cellulose in order to identify cellulose degrading microorganisms using a culture independent approach. A metagenome was linked to the newly synthesized proteins involved by cellulose, by investigation of labelled proteins (Protein-SIP). The study aims at identifying microorganisms involved in the degradation of plant-based biomass.
