Interpretive Summary: We generated and deposited the genome-wide datasets of transcript factor binding sites of CTCF CCCTC-binding factor, histone methylation and histone acetylation from bovine rumen epithelial primary cells before and after butyrate treatment. In this data descriptor, we provide detailed information on experiment design, data generation, data quality assessment and guideline for data re-use. Our data will be a valuable resource for systematic annotation of regulatory elements in cattle and the functionally biological role of butyrate in the epigenetic modifications in bovine, as well as for the nutritional regulation and metabolism study of farm animal and human.

Technical Abstract: Discovering the regulatory elements of genomes in livestock is essential for our understanding of livestock’s basic biology and genomic improvement programs. Previous studies showed butyrate mediates epigenetic modifications of bovine cells. To explore the bovine functional genomic elements and the vital roles of butyrate on the epigenetic modifications of bovine genomic activities, we generated and deposited the genome-wide datasets of transcript factor binding sites of CTCF (CCCTC-binding factor, insulator binding protein), histone methylation (H3H27me3, H3K4me1, H3K4me3) and histone acetylation (H3K27ac) from bovine rumen epithelial primary cells (REPC) before and after butyrate treatment. In this data descriptor, we provide detailed information on experiment design, data generation, data quality assessment and guideline for data re-use. Our data will be a valuable resource for systematic annotation of regulatory elements in cattle and the functionally biological role of butyrate in the epigenetic modifications in bovine, as well as for the nutritional regulation and metabolism study of farm animal and human.
