Summary (written by the submitters)
Activin-class ligands of the TGFβ family induce follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) production by pituitary gonadotrope cells in mice via the actions of the transcription factors SMAD3, SMAD4, and FOXL2, which bind to cis-elements in the FSHβ subunit (Fshb) promoter. An enhancer region for murine Fshb transcription was identified in vitro.

However, deletion of the region using CRISPR-Cas9 did not affect FSH synthesis or secretion in mice. Using single-nucleus ATAC-seq of whole pituitaries, we identified three additional chromatin regions upstream of Fshb open exclusively in murine gonadotropes. We found these regions, as well as the Fshb gene, to be fully or partially closed in gonadotropes of FSH-deficient mice with genetically or pharmacologically inactivated activin type II receptors. The data indicate that there may be as many as four activin-sensitive enhancers upstream of murine Fshb. This data is part of a SuperSeries that includes bulk ATAC-seq and ChIP-seq data of gonadotrope-derived LβT2 cells, that substantiate the above conclusions.

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 GSE310460_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 PRJNA1366375 and SRA study SRP646838. Searching any of these in the dataset finder brings you back here.

Study design
3 × Fshb-Enh2-KO_Mouse vs 3 × Bimagrumab-treated_Mouse vs 2 × WildType_Mouse vs 2 × IgG-treated_Mouse

Supports a case/control comparison: 5 samples read as cases, 2 as controls.

How we read this: 4 replicated groups read from 10 sample titles; they account for 10 of them. 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.
