英文摘要Nucleosome positioning around the gene space (or transcriptional unit) plays a crucial role for gene regulation but we do not know if the spatial organization-nucleosome-space occupancy or nucleosome density in a defined sequence unit length-contributes to the regulation complexity of mammalian gene expression. using our own rmrna-seq (ribosomal rna-minus rna sequencing) and publically available chip-seq (h3) data from mouse stem cells. we discovered a non-random distribution of nucleosomes along chromosomes, and further genome-wide studies oil histone modifications, dna methylation, transcriptional activity, gene density, and base compositional dynamics, demonstrated that nucleosome-space occupancy of genomic regions-clustered genes and their intergenic spaces-show distinctive features, where a high occupancy coincides with active transcription, intensive histone modifications, poor dna methylation, and higher gc contents as compared to the nucleosome-poor regions. we therefore proposed that nucleosome-space occupancy as a novel mechanism of epigenetic gene regulation, creating a vital environment for transcriptional activation.
