Abstract excerpt
Skeletal muscles are comprised of two major types of myofibers, fast and slow. It is hypothesized that once myofiber type is determined, muscle fiber-type specificity is maintained by an epigenetic mechanism, however, this remains poorly understood. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive CpG methylation analysis with a reduced representation of bisulfite sequencing (RRBS). Using GFP-myh7 mouse, we visually...
