Research Abstract |
In this study, I made several cell type-specific DNA methylation epigenome data of isolated cardiomyocyte populations from several developmental stages and pushed forward understanding of the epigenome in matured cells. I compared the cardiomyocyte epigenome with those of embryonic stem cells and liver, and also with the heart failure cardiac muscle cells. As the result, small subpopulation of genes with remarkable DNA methylation changes in their gene body regions were included in the cell type-specific gene trait. These gene body regions accumulated the transcription machinery and histone acetylation enzyme in the matured cells, and transiently accumulate the derivatives of methyl cytosine demethylation, which implicates the active demethylation process. Our study showed the involvement of the active DNA demethylation process in gene body regions and indicates the possibility that the gene body DNA hypomethylationmay stabilize the cell type-specific gene transcription.
