DNA methylation profiling of primary neuroblastoma tumors using methyl-CpG-binding domain sequencing
Comprehensive genome-wide DNA methylation studies in neuroblastoma (NB), a childhood tumor that originates from precursor cells of the sympathetic nervous system, are scarce. Recently, we profiled the DNA methylome of 102 well-annotated primary NB tumors by methyl-CpG-binding domain (MBD) sequencing, in order to identify prognostic biomarker candidates. In this data descriptor, we give details ...
متن کاملRecognition of methylated DNA through methyl-CpG binding domain proteins
DNA methylation is a key regulatory control route in epigenetics, involving gene silencing and chromosome inactivation. It has been recognized that methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) proteins play an important role in interpreting the genetic information encoded by methylated DNA (mDNA). Although the function of MBD proteins has attracted considerable attention and is well characterized, the mecha...
متن کاملThe SRA Methyl-Cytosine-Binding Domain Links DNA and Histone Methylation
Epigenetic gene silencing suppresses transposon activity and is critical for normal development . Two common epigenetic gene-silencing marks are DNA methylation and histone H3 lysine 9 dimethylation (H3K9me2). In Arabidopsis thaliana, H3K9me2, catalyzed by the methyltransferase KRYPTONITE (KYP/SUVH4), is required for maintenance of DNA methylation outside of the standard CG sequence context. Ad...
متن کاملQuality Evaluation of Methyl Binding Domain Based Kits for Enrichment DNA-Methylation Sequencing
DNA-methylation is an important epigenetic feature in health and disease. Methylated sequence capturing by Methyl Binding Domain (MBD) based enrichment followed by second-generation sequencing provides the best combination of sensitivity and cost-efficiency for genome-wide DNA-methylation profiling. However, existing implementations are numerous, and quality control and optimization require exp...
متن کاملSingle-stranded DNA-binding proteins regulate the abundance of LIM domain and LIM domain-binding proteins.
The LIM domain-binding protein Ldb1 is an essential cofactor of LIM-homeodomain (LIM-HD) and LIM-only (LMO) proteins in development. The stoichiometry of Ldb1, LIM-HD, and LMO proteins is tightly controlled in the cell and is likely a critical determinant of their biological actions. Single-stranded DNA-binding proteins (SSBPs) were recently shown to interact with Ldb1 and are also important in...
