Suz12 binds to silenced regions of the genome in a cell-type-specific manner
Open accessAbstract
Suz12 is a component of the Polycomb group complexes 2, 3, and 4 (PRC 2/3/4). These complexes are critical for proper embryonic development, but very few target genes have been identified in either mouse or human cells. Using a variety of ChIP-chip approaches, we have identified a large set of Suz12 target genes in five different human and mouse cell lines. Interestingly, we found that Suz12 target promoters are cell type specific, with transcription factors and homeobox proteins predominating in embryonal cells and glycoproteins and immunoglobulin-related proteins predominating in adult tumors. We have also characterized the localization of other components of the PRC complex with Suz12 and investigated the overall relationship between Suz12 binding and markers of active versus inactive chromatin, using both promoter arrays and custom tiling arrays. Surprisingly, we find that the PRC complexes can be localized to discrete binding sites or spread through large regions of the mouse and human genomes. Finally, we have shown that some Suz12 target genes are bound by OCT4 in embryonal cells and suggest that OCT4 maintains stem cell self-renewal, in part, by recruiting PRC complexes to certain genes that promote differentiation.

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.
