| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
DNA methylation represents a major mechanism for epigenetics, which determines the potential of individual cells. Genome-wide pattern of DNA methylation is termed as the methylome. The methylome differs from one another, depending not only on the type and status of the cell but also between the paternal and maternal genomes. Hence the ultimate methylome analysis is to decipher the complete methylation patterns of the two genomes in the same single cell. While we developed a unique method that has opened the door to the single-cell methylome analysis, here we further improved the method towards the ultimate methylome analysis.
