Spreading of these marks into nearby active genes must be avoided in order to maintain appropriate gene expression. Here, we uncover Arabidopsis Methyl-CpG-Binding Domain 7 (MBD7) and Increased DNA Methylation 3 (IDM3) as anti-silencing factors that prevent transgene repression and genome-wide DNA hypermethylation. MBD7 preferentially binds to highly methylated, CG-dense regions associated with non-CG methylation and physically associates with other anti-silencing factors, including the histone acetyltransferase IDM1, IDM2, and IDM3. IDM1 and IDM2 were previously shown to facilitate active DNA demethylation by the 5-methylcytosine DNA glycosylase/lyase ROS1. Thus, MBD7 tethers the IDM proteins to methylated DNA, which enables the function of DNA demethylases that in turn establish chromatin boundaries and limit DNA methylation Using ChIP-seq to study the genomic targeting principle of MBD7 protein Examination of MBD7 protein binding principle using ChIP-Seq. WT and proMBD7::gMBD7::4xMYC transgenic plants were used for ChIP-seq.

The ChIP-seq was performed as previously described (Wierzbicki et al., 2008). In brief, 3 g of 14-day-old seedlings was collected, placed in 35 ml of 1% formaldehyde PBS buffer, and then fixed by vacuum for 2 min followed by another 8 min. After glycine was added, samples were subjected to a vacuum for 5 min to stop the fixation. Samples were washed three times with sterile water and then ground into powder with liquid nitrogen. Nuclei were extracted with Honda buffer. The nuclei solution was sonicated to break genomic DNA into ~500-bp fragments. After centrifugation, supernatants were removed and used for immuno-precipitation. Dynabeads (Invitrogen, cat# 10003D) were used for pre-clearing and antibody binding. The antibodies were c-Myc Mouse Monoclonal Antibody (Invitrogen R950-25). The libraries were prepared using the NuGen Ovation Ultralow Library Systems and were sequenced in the Genomics Core Facilities of the Shanghai Center for Plant Stress Biology, SIBS, CAS (Shanghai, China) with Illumina HiSeq2500. Plants were grown at 23M-0C in a growth chamber with 16 h of light and 8 h of darkness on 1/2 MS medium with 1% glucose.
