Investigating the changes in epigenetic states during erythroid differentiation using in vitro hematopoietic modeling with the G1E-ER4+estradiol system. Examining GATA1 function, gene expression alterations, ChIP-seq, RNA-seq assays, and chromatin state dynamics are key aspects of this research.

Chromatin states from integrative analysis: limited change during differentiation chromHMM segmentations: Jason Ernst and Manolis Kellis, MIT Broad
GATA1-occupied segments of DNA: Vast majority are in active chromatin, few change states Dominant mark H3K4me3 H3K4me1 H3K27me3 None H3K4me3 H3K4me1 H3K27me3 None
Quantum change in chromatin state distinguishes expressed from non-expressed loci Enrichment of chromatin state
Chromatin state precedes GATA1-induced TF changes Chromatin state established (mostly): Active Repressed Dead zones Chromatin condenses Nucleus removed Induction and repression: Dynamics of transcription factor binding within the already-established chromatin context.
