Abstract

The laboratory mouse shares the majority of its protein-coding genes with humans, making it the premier model organism in biomedical research, yet the two mammals differ in significant ways. To gain greater insights into both shared and species-specific transcriptional and cellular regulatory programs in the mouse, the Mouse ENCODE Consortium has mapped transcription, DNase I hypersensitivity, transcription factor binding, chromatin modifications and replication domains throughout the mouse genome in diverse cell and tissue types. By comparing with the human genome, we not only confirm substantial conservation in the newly annotated potential functional sequences, but also find a large degree of divergence of sequences involved in transcriptional regulation, chromatin state and higher order chromatin organization. Our results illuminate the wide range of evolutionary forces acting on genes and their regulatory regions, and provide a general resource for research into mammalian biology and mechanisms of human diseases. The Mouse ENCODE Consortium has mapped transcription, DNase I hypersensitivity, transcription factor binding, chromatin modifications and replication domains throughout the mouse genome in diverse cell and tissue types; these data were compared with those from human to confirm substantial conservation in the newly annotated potential functional sequences and to reveal pronounced divergence of other sequences involved in transcriptional regulation, chromatin state and higher order chromatin organization. The mouse is the premier model organism in biomedical research. To gain greater insights into the shared and species-specific transcriptional and cellular regulatory programs, the Mouse ENCODE Consortium has mapped transcription, DNase I hypersensitivity, transcription factor binding, chromatin modifications and replication domains throughout the mouse genome in diverse cell and tissue types. These finding are compared with the corresponding human data to confirm substantial conservation in the newly annotated potential functional sequences, and to reveal pronounced divergence of other sequences involved in transcriptional regulation, chromatin state and higher order chromatin organization. The data and their analyses provide a valuable resource for research into mammalian biology and mechanisms of human diseases.

  • Large consortia projects (GTEx, Epigenome Roadmap, ENCODE) are already generating data from multiple-omics levels that facilitate integrated analyses.

    “Projects from large consortia like GTEx [156], the Epigenome Roadmap [176] and ENCODE [15] are already generating data from multiple-omics levels that facilitate these integrated analyses.”
  • HDAC1 profile in TgSpi1 cells proportionally colocalized with SIN3A profile but not with P300 profile.

    “Notably, the HDAC1 profile in TgSpi1 erythroleukaemic cells proportionally colocalized with the SIN3A profile but not with the histone acetylase P300 (previously published datasets, (56)) profile in erythroleukaemic cells (Supplementary Figure S5H)”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
