GSE119127: Expression changes in mouse oligodendrocytes after deletion of the Ep400 chromatin remodeler

Bulk RNA sequencing

To address the role of INO80/SWR-type remodeling complexes, we deleted Ep400 at defined times of mouse oligodendrocyte development. Whereas oligodendrocyte precursors are specified and develop normally without Ep400, terminal differentiation is dramatically impaired resulting in hypomyelination. RNA-Seq studies were performed on cultured and FACS sorted control and Ep400-deficient mouse oligodendrocytes to analyze changes in gene expression. These revealed that genes associated with the myelination program and with response to DNA damage are altered in Ep400-deficient oligodendrocytes.
