Summary (written by the submitters)
Successful cloning through somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) face significant challenges due to epigenetic obstacles. Recent studies have highlighted the roles of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 as potential epigenetic barriers. However, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unclear. In this study, we generated genome-wide maps of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 from mouse pre-implantation NT embryos.

Our analysis revealed aberrant over-representation of H3K4me3 and H3K27me3 bivalent in 2-cell stage NT embryos, potentially linked to the deficiency of H3K36me3. Notably, the overexpression of Setd2, a H3K36me3 methyltransferase, successfully restored multiple epigenetic marks, including H3K36me3, H3K4me3 and H3K27me3. Additionally, it reinstated the expression levels of ZGA-related genes by re-establishing H3K36me3 at gene body regions to exclude H3K27me3 from bivalent regions, and ultimately improved cloning efficiency. These findings highlight the excessive bivalent state as a potent barrier and emphasize the removal of these barriers as a promising approach to achieving higher cloning efficiency.

Download · which file do I need?

Direct links to NCBI and ENA, no account and no request form. Pick by what you want to do: take the small processed table to look, the supplementary files to re-analyse, or the original raw data to start over.

1 · Just have a look

Processed table

The series matrix: one table of values per sample as the submitters processed it. The smallest download, and it opens in Excel or R. Start here to see what the data look like.

2 · Re-analyse it

Supplementary files

The count tables and other files the authors uploaded. Take only the samples you need, or the whole study as GSE262390_RAW.tar (it can run to tens of gigabytes).

3 · Start from the raw reads

Raw sequencing reads

The original FASTQ files, straight from the sequencer, held at ENA. Large, and you align them yourself, so only choose this if you need to re-process the study from scratch.

What the files usually look like: Look for peak files (.bed, .narrowPeak) and signal tracks (.bigWig) among the supplementary files; the raw reads are on ENA.

Also filed as BioProject PRJNA1091639 and SRA study SRP497795. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
79 samples, each with a distinct title — no replicated groups

Any grouping that defines a comparison lives in the sample characteristics, which GEO records separately from the titles.

How we read this: Read from 79 sample titles: 79 distinct titles with little repetition. These groups are guessed from the sample names, not taken from the paper, so check them against the sample list below before relying on them.
