Direct ChIP-bisulfite sequencing reveals a role of H3K27me3 mediating aberrant hypermethylation of promoter CpG islands in cancer cells

Abstract: The model describing that aberrant CpG island (CGI) methylation leads to repression of tumour suppressor genes in cancers has been influential, but it remains unclear how such aberrancy is induced. Recent studies provided clues indicating that promoter hypermethylation in cancers might be associated with PRC target genes. Here, we used ChIP-BS-seq to examine methylation of the DNA fragments precipitated by the antibodies to both H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 histone modifications. We showed that, for a set of genes hig… Show more

“…In both SPLAT and Accel-NGS Methyl-Seq data, we found some degree of coverage decline in CpG islands and in very GC rich promoter regions, which is a common characteristic of many types WGBS data (Supplementary Data). Notably, the library preparation cost for SPLAT (<10 $/sample) is less than one tenth of the cost for any of the commercial WGBS methods, making SPLAT a particularly attractive method also for bisulphite sequencing of smaller genomes such as Arabidopsis and for applications such as ChIP-bisulphite sequencing (ChIP-BS-seq) (43,44) where the cost of library preparation per sample approaches the cost of sequencing. The post bisulphite adaptor tagging (PBAT) method, which is the only other alternative protocol for post bisulphite WGBS library preparation that has been described in a peer-reviewed journal, has the advantage of producing amplification free libraries from low amounts of DNA.…”
