Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we aimed to reveal the chromatin status during oogenesis. As it was reported previously that ATAC-seq method is useful to profile open chromatin regions with limited cell number, we focused on this technique. We tried to optimize the method. We examined the suitable method to dissociate Tn5 transposase during sample preparation. We believe that such optimization will be important to obtain stable results from limited cell number samples.
