Abstract

In mammals and other vertebrates, cytosine methylation in CpG sites is often negatively correlated with gene activity. Because methylation of the promoter region is most crucial for this effect, the simplest hypothesis is that CpG methylation interferes with the binding of specific transcription factors. We have examined this hypothesis with two different transcription factor-binding sites that contain a CpG dinucleotide, namely the cAMP-responsive element (CRE; 5'-TGACGTCA) and the Sp1-binding site (5'-GTGAGGCGGTGAGACT). We have reported previously that CpG methylation of the Sp1-binding site affected neither factor binding nor transcription in HeLa cells, which may be related to the fact that Sp1 is typically associated with promoters of housekeeping genes. In contrast, CREs are often associated with promoters of cell type-specific genes. A synthetic oligonucleotide containing two tandem CREs derived from the gene encoding the human glycoprotein hormone alpha-subunit was cloned upstream of a reporter gene. Transcription of this gene was dependent on the CRE sequences in both PC12 and HeLa cells. Bandshift and methylation interference assays show that similar, if not the same, factor(s) bind to the CRE in both cell lines, even though induction by cAMP was only observed in PC12 cells. CpG methylation of the CRE consensus sequences (TGACGTCA) resulted in loss of specific factor binding, as well as loss of transcriptional activity in vitro and in vivo, in both cell types. This suggests that the inactivity of methylated promoters can, at least in some cases, be explained by their inability to bind specific transcription factors.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
