We have characterized two post-translational histone modifications in C. elegans on a genomic scale. Micrococcal nuclease digestion and immunoprecipitation were used to obtain distinct populations of single nucleosome cores, which were analyzed using massively parallel DNA sequencing to obtain pos...
ORGANISM(S): Caenorhabditis elegans 
Exogenous double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) has been shown to exert homology-dependent effects at the level of both target mRNA stability and chromatin structure. Using C. elegans undergoing RNAi as an animal model, we have investigated the generality, scope, and longevity of chromatin-targeted dsRNA effe...

dsRNA-mediated gene silencing (RNAi) can be inherited for multiple generations in C. elegans. To understand this process we conducted a genetic screen for animals defective for transmitting RNAi silencing signals to future generations. This screen identified the gene heritable RNAi defective (hrde)-...

We show there is minimal genome-wide chromatin rearrangements (as measured by DNA accessibility) during tissue differentiation in C. elegans transgenic expression of E. coli DAM (DNA Adenine Methyltransferase) from tissue-specific promoters followed by mapping of methylated sites using a procedure t...

We prepared small RNA libraries from 29 tumor/normal pairs of human cervical tissue samples. Analysis of the resulting sequences (42 million in total) defined 64 new human microRNA (miRNA) genes. Both arms of the hairpin precursor were observed in twenty-three of the newly identified miRNA candidate...
