    LTR retrotransposons transcribed in oocytes drive species-specific and heritable changes in DNA methylation

    De novo DNA methylation (DNAme) during mouse oogenesis occurs within transcribed regions enriched for H3K36me3. As many oocyte transcripts originate in long terminal repeats (LTRs), which are heterogeneous eve...

    Development and application of an integrated allele-specific pipeline for methylomic and epigenomic analysis (MEA)

    Allele-specific transcriptional regulation, including of imprinted genes, is essential for normal mammalian development. While the regulatory regions controlling imprinted genes are associated with DNA methyla...
