Request a detailed protocol To assess effects of DNA methylation-environment interactions on gene expression in vivo, we evaluated endogenous methylation and gene expression from matched whole genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) and RNA-seq data collected from human monocyte-derived macrophages (n=35 donors), with and without infection with the influenza A virus (IAV; Aracena et al., 2024).
