Impact of cytosine methylation on DNA binding specificities of human transcription factors
Open accessAbstract
Positives and negatives of methylated CpG: When the DNA bases cytosine and guanine are next to each other, a methyl group is generally added to the pyrimidine, generating a mCpG dinucleotide. This modification alters DNA structure but can also affect function by inhibiting transcription factor (TF) binding. Yin et al. systematically analyzed the effect of CpG methylation on the binding of 542 human TFs (see the Perspective by Hughes and Lambert). In addition to inhibiting binding of some TFs, they found that mCpGs can promote binding of others, particularly TFs involved in development, such as homeodomain proteins.

The HNF4A binding motif does not contain a CG which can be methylated, thus making it a methylation-insensitive TF.
“Of interest, the HNF4A binding motif does not contain a CG which can be methylated, thus making it a methylation-insensitive TF (11, 17).”
From Hepatocyte Nuclear Factor 4‐Alpha Is Essential for the Active Epigenetic State at Enhancers in Mouse Liver (2019) · cites this paper as [17]
The sections “CpG methylation has a major effect on TF-DNA binding” and “Binding of most TFs can be affected by CpG methylation” say that TFs whose recognition sequences lack CpG are not affected by CpG methylation. Our copy does not identify HNF4A as one of those TFs or establish that its binding motif lacks CG, so the HNF4A-specific claim is not verified. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredMany transcription factors, including several ETS family members, display reduced binding affinities to DNA motifs containing methylated cytosine residues.
“Although many TF, including several members of the ETS family, display reduced binding affinities to DNA motifs containing methylated cytosine residues (44)”

Hypermethylation of DMR_394 may disrupt binding of regulatory proteins and adversely affect the organization and regulation of nearby genes.
“Given that the affinity of many transcription factors, including CTCF31, is negatively impacted by methylation of their binding sites32, it is possible that hypermethylation of DMR_394 disrupts binding of regulatory proteins and adversely affects the organization and regulation of genes nearby.”

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.
