ChIP-seq protocol for sperm cells and embryos to assess environmental impacts and epigenetic inheritance

Author(s): Lismer A; Lambrot R; Lafleur C; Dumeaux V; Kimmins S;

In the field of epigenetic inheritance, delineating molecular mechanisms implicated in the transfer of paternal environmental conditions to descendants has been elusive. This protocol details how to track sperm chromatin intergenerationally. We describe mou ...

Histone H3 lysine 4 trimethylation in sperm is transmitted to the embryo and associated with diet-induced phenotypes in the offspring.

Author(s): Lismer A, Dumeaux V, Lafleur C, Lambrot R, Brind'Amour J, Lorincz MC, Kimmins S

A father's lifestyle impacts offspring health; yet, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. We hypothesized that a diet that changes methyl donor availability will alter the sperm and embryo epigenomes to impact embryonic gene expression and ...
