> The National Institutes of Health recently launched the NIH Mouse Regulome
> Project (NMRP), an initiative that seeks to characterize all
> gene-regulatory elements and ranscription factor binding sites in the
> mouse genome. This is achieved by mapping genome-wide DNA methylation,
> chromatin modifications that demarcate promoters and enhancers, PolII
> binding, transcriptome analyses, and DNAseI hypersensitivity. In contrast
> to the previous human ENCODE project, which assigned enhancers to cognate
> promoters based on proximity, the NMRP makes use of a newly developed
> deep-sequencing technique (ChIA-PET) that precisely maps promoter-enhancer
> interactions with unprecedented detail. To complement these efforts, a
> Genome Editing facility was created to assemble hundreds of zinc finger
> nucleases with the goal of deleting regulatory domains and study their
> activity in vivo. The seminar will highlight the applications of these
> technologies to mouse ES cells and B lymphocytes.
