Dynamics of chromatin accessibility during TGF-beta-induced EMT of Ras-transformed mammary gland epithelial cells [FAIRE-Seq]. Mus musculus

We performed global mapping of accessible chromatin in mouse mammary gland epithelial EpH4 cell line and its Ras-transformed derivative (EpRas) using formaldehyde-assisted isolation of regulatory element (FAIRE)-sequencing (seq) to analyze the mechanisms of transcriptional regulation during TGF-beta-induced EMT. Overall design: FAIRE-seq was perfomed using EpH4 and EpRas cells stimulated with 1 ng/ml TGF-beta or left untreated for 8 days.
