Genome-wide maps of chromatin state in Shox2-domained anterior and Shox2-free posteior palatal tissues in the developing palate.
To characterize the anterior palate-specific chromatin landscape of the distal Shox2-binding sites, we conducted Shox2 ChIP-Seq again in parallel with H3K27ac ChIP-Seq on the Shox2+ domain anterior palate and the Shox2- posterior palate. Integrative analysis of the Shox2 and H3K27ac ChIP-Seq datasets and aggregate plots of binding signals of H3K27ac in the anterior and posterior palate, respectively, versus the summits of Shox2 binding sites showed close association of Shox2 binding peak with enriched H3K27ac in the anterior palate but not the posterior palate, indicate that Shox2 occupancy is highly related to active enhancer elements. Overall design: Examination of Shox2-binding peaks in anterior palate and the H3K27ac-enriched peaks in anterior and posteior palate
