Abstract

Higher-order chromatin structure and DNA methylation are critical for gene regulation, but how these vary across the human body remains unclear. We performed multi-omic profiling of 3D genome structure and DNA methylation for 86,689 single nuclei across 16 human tissues, identifying 35 major and 206 cell subtypes. We revealed extensive changes in CG and non-CG methylation across almost all cell types and characterized 3D chromatin structure at an unprecedented cellular resolution. Intriguingly, extensive discrepancies exist between cell types delineated by DNA methylation and genome structure, indicating that the role of distinct epigenomic features in maintaining cell identity may vary by lineage. This study expands our understanding of the diversity of DNA methylation and chromatin structure and offers an extensive reference for exploring gene regulation in human health and disease.

摘要

高阶染色质结构和DNA甲基化对基因调控至关重要,但它们在人体中的变化情况仍不清楚。我们对16种人体组织中的86689个单核进行了3D基因组结构和DNA甲基化的多组学分析,确定了35种主要细胞亚型和206种细胞亚型。我们揭示了几乎所有细胞类型中CG和非CG甲基化的广泛变化,并以前所未有的细胞分辨率表征了3D染色质结构。有趣的是,由DNA甲基化和基因组结构划定的细胞类型之间存在广泛差异,这表明不同表观基因组特征在维持细胞身份中的作用可能因细胞谱系而异。这项研究扩展了我们对DNA甲基化和染色质结构多样性的理解,并为探索人类健康和疾病中的基因调控提供了广泛的参考。
