5-Hydroxymethylcytosine in E-box motifs ACAT|GTG and ACAC|GTG increases DNA-binding of the B-HLH transcription factor TCF4

Abstract: We evaluated DNA binding of the B-HLH family members TCF4 and USF1 using protein binding microarrays (PBMs) containing double-stranded DNA probes with cytosine on both strands or 5-methylcytosine (5mC) or 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) on one DNA strand and cytosine on the second strand. TCF4 preferentially bound the E-Box motif (CAN∣NTG) with strongest binding to the 8-mer CAG∣GTGGT. 5mC uniformly decreases DNA binding of both TCF4 and USF1. The bulkier 5hmC also inhibited USF1 binding to DNA. In contrast, 5h… Show more

“…T7 DNA polymerase can efficiently incorporate 5mC and 5hmC when double-stranding single-stranded DNA 27 . We exploited this property to double-strand single-stranded DNA 60-mers on an Agilent microarray using cytosine, 5mC or 5hmC, creating an asymmetric distribution of 5mC and 5hmC 15, 17 . To create the 4 th type of DNA, we enzymatically methylated the two cytosines in all CG dinucleotides (one cytosine in each strand) 20 , producing DNA that Zta is known to bind 106 .…”

“…To determine the effect of individual methylated cytosines on Zta binding to DNA, we double-stranded the single-stranded DNA on the PBMs with 5mC 17 . For these analyses, we compute the Z-scores for all 65,536 8-mers, as complements are structurally different, unlike the CG dinucleotide methylation data where complements are identical.…”

“…5caC has been observed to augment the interaction between basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family members and E-box sites. In other cases, the presence of 5caC at positions just flanking an E-box motif without a CpG substantially increased affinity of bHLH family members for this sequence [32,33], perhaps by altering DNA shape [34]. In other cases, modification of bases within the recognition sequence could promote binding or alter binding preference compared to unmodified DNA.…”
