Project description:Here we report on the identification of two previously uncharacterized proteins as CP190 interacting proteins, that we have named Ibf1 and Ibf2. These proteins localize at insulator bodies and associate with chromatin at CP190-binding sites throughout the genome. We also show that Ibf1 and Ibf2 are DNAbinding proteins that form obligated hetero-oligomers that mediate CP190 binding to chromatin. Moreover, Ibf1 and Ibf2 are necessary for insulator activity in enhancerblocking assays. Taken together our data reveal a novel pathway of CP190 recruitment to chromatin that is required for insulator activity.

Project description:Here we compare the distribution of insulator proteins during interphase and mitosis. We performed ChIP-seq analysis on purified populations of interphase and mitotic Kc cells, using antibodies against CP190, dCTCF, BEAF, and Su(Hw). Examination of 4 different insulator proteins during interphase and mitosis
Project description:CTCF and Cp190 proteins are implicated at many insulator elements throughout Drosophila genome. Here we compared Hi-C maps, transcriptomes and binding of multiple insulator proteins in cultured Drosophila cells derived from CTCF-KO, Cp190-KO and control embryos.
Project description:This SuperSeries is composed of the following subset Series: GSE30686: Gene expression analysis of Kc cells from Drosophila melanogaster during ecdysone treatment and CP190 knockdown GSE30740: Distribution of Drosophila insulator proteins after ecdysone treatment in Kc cells Refer to individual Series
