Aiptasia whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (DNA methylation) on cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis

Aiptasia is an emerging model to study the cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis in lab. Using Aiptasia (strain CC7, sensu Exaiptasia pallida), we obtained whole-genome CpG DNA methylation (WGBS), ChIP-Seq and RNA-Seq data from aposymbiotic (Apo) and symbiotic (Sym) individuals to study the function of DNA methylation in transcriptional regulation and its role in the cnidarian-dinoflagellate symbiosis.
