Dynamics of 5-hydroxymethylcytosine and chromatin marks in mammalian neurogenesis. Mus musculus

H3K36me3 (ChIp-ChIp), H3K4me3 (ChIp-ChIp), H3K27me3 (ChIp-ChIp), 5mC (MIRA) and 5hmC (hMeDIP) profiles were analyzed in neural progenitor cells (NPC) and neurons by using Nimblegen Mouse ChIP-chip 2.1M Economy Whole-Genome Tiling - 4 Array Set. In order to compare two different techniques of 5hmC profiling, we performed 5hmC profiling with Hydroxymethyl Collector™ Kit (Active Motif) method and hybridized it on mouse Chr7 fragment (Nimblegen). As an independent experiment, 5hmC profiling was performed by using hMeDIP method and hybridized on mouse Chr7 fragment (Nimblegen). After MIRA enrichment and genome amplification, DNA was hybridized on mouse Chr7 fragment (Nimblegen). Overall design: Analysis of epigenetic changes during neural differentiation due to comparisson of epigenetic patterns in neural progenitor cells versus neurons.
