MNase and HpaII sensitivity assays in MCF7 breast cancer cells


ABSTRACT: DNA are packaged into nucleosomes and chromatin. We performed incomplete MNase digestion of chromatin to identify nucleosome-free regions that may indicate active promoters and regulatory regions. Additionally, HpaII digestion was performed which cleaves CCGG sites when the internal C remains unmodified. The hypomethylation state and nuclease sensitivity of the chromatin are indicators of transcription regulatory regions.

Oncogenic transformation of normal cells often involves epigenetic alterations, including histone modification and DNA methylation. We conducted whole-genome bisulfite sequencing to determine the DNA methylomes of normal breast, fibroadenoma, invasive ductal carcinomas and MCF7. The emergence, disappearance, expansion and contraction of kilobase-sized hypomethylated regions (HMRs) and the hypomethylation of the megabase-sized partially methylated domains (PMDs) are the major forms of methylation  ...[more]
