Promoter-specific dynamics of TATA-binding protein association with the human genome.

ABSTRACT: Transcription factor binding to target sites in vivo is a dynamic process that involves cycles of association and dissociation, with individual proteins differing in their binding dynamics. The dynamics at individual sites on a genomic scale have been investigated in yeast cells, but comparable experiments have not been done in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we describe a tamoxifen-inducible, time-course ChIP-seq approach to measure transcription factor binding dynamics at target sites throughout the human genome. As observed in yeast cells, the TATA-binding protein (TBP) typically displays rapid turnover at RNA polymerase (Pol) II-transcribed promoters, slow turnover at Pol III promoters, and very slow turnover at the Pol I promoter. Turnover rates vary widely among Pol II promoters in a
