A little guide for advanced search:

  • Tip 1. You can use quotes "" to search for an exact expression.
    Example: "cell division"
  • Tip 2. You can use + symbol to restrict results containing all words.
    Example: +cell +stem
  • Tip 3. You can use + and - symbols to force inclusion or exclusion of specific words.
    Example: +cell -stem

  Abstract:

“In mammals, otherwise similar cells from distinct clonal lineages can maintain striking epigenetic differences, with profound impact on transcription and cell function. Inactivation of one copy of the X chromosome in female cells is the best understood example of such epigenetic mosaicism. Autosomal monoallelic expression (MAE) is another common example, with different clonal lineages maintaining distinct states of allele-specific expression. Despite its prevalence, no molecular mechanisms underlying MAE have been identified to date. We developed and applied a new screening-by-sequencing strategy to identify mechanism of mitotic memory of MAE in clonal mouse cells. Contrary to previous reports, DNA methylation plays key role in mitotic memory of MAE in multiple autosomal loci.

Building on this finding, we performed the first genome-wide analysis of changes in allele-specific gene-regulatory landscape in response to chemical perturbation. Unexpectedly, genome-wide changes were not limited to relaxation of MAE towards equal biallelic expression. Many genes showed paradoxical increase of allelic imbalance, even though it relaxed for DNA methylation and chromatin accessibility. These unexpected observations are explained by comparative analysis of multiple clonal lines, revealing a previously unappreciated interplay of genetic regulatory architecture with epigenetic control of allele-specific expression.”
