Comment[ArrayExpressAccession] E-GEOD-8472 Public Release Date 2007-08-23 Investigation Title Chip-chip from pro-B cells with H3K4me3, H3K4me2 and H3K9ac Comment[Submitted Name] Chip-chip from pro-B cells with H3K4me3, H3K4me2 and H3K9ac Experiment Description The transcription factor Pax5 represses B-lineage-inappropriate genes and activates B-cell-specific genes in B-lymphocytes. Here we have identified 170 novel Pax5-activated genes. Conditional mutagenesis demonstrated that the Pax5-regulated genes require continuous Pax5 activity for normal expression in pro-B and mature B cells. Expression of half of the Pax5-activated genes is either absent or significantly reduced upon Pax5 loss in plasma cells. Direct Pax5 target genes were identified based on their protein synthesis-independent activation by a Pax5-estrogen receptor fusion protein. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) of Pax5 together with chromatin profiling by ChIP-on-chip analysis demonstrated that Pax5 directly activates the chromatin at promoters or putative enhancers of Pax5 target genes. The novel Pax5-activated genes code for key regulatory and structural proteins involved in B cell signaling, adhesion, migration, antigen presentation and germinal center B cell formation, thus revealing a complex regulatory network, which is activated by Pax5 to control B cell development and function.

VALUE = log2(Signal Cy5/Signal Cy3) - tukey.biweight(Signal Cy5/Signal Cy3)
Cy5 = Cy5 signal, 635nm
Cy3 = Cy5 signal, 532nm The labeled ChIP DNA was precipitated with 0.1 volume 5M NaCl and 1 volume isopropanol, and hybridized in 45 ul of buffer containing 20% formamide, 1.2 M betaine, 0.1 ug/ul herring sperm DNA and 10 ug of human COT1 DNA (Invitrogen). Arrays were hybridized in Maui hybridization stations for 16-18 h at 42C, and then washed in 42C 0.2% SDS/0.2x SSC, room temperature 0.2x SSC, and 0.05x SSC. Hybridization buffers and washes were completed using manufacturer's protocols (http://www.nimblegen.com/products/lit/lit.html) see chanel 1 Pax5-/- Rag2-/- pro-B cells were cultured on gamma-irradiated ST2 cells in IL-7 containing IMDM medium. Rag2-/- pro-B cells were cultured for 5 days in the presence of IL-7 on OP9 feeder cells. log2(Signal Cy5/Signal Cy3) - tukey.biweight(Signal Cy5/Signal Cy3) Arrays were scanned on an Axon 4000B scanner per manufacturer's protocol (http://www.nimblegen.com/products/lit/lit.html). see chanel 1 Rag2-/- pro-B cells were MACs sorted from the bone marrow of 3-5 week old mice. Pax5-/- Rag2-/- pro-B cells are an established cell line. 5x10E6 cells were fixed with 1% formaldehyde in culture medium for 10 min at room temperature followed by quenching with 0.125 M glycine for 5 min. The cells were washed twice with ice-cold PBS and lysed in 1 ml of lysis buffer (1% SDS, 10 mM EDTA, 50 mM Tris pH8.0) for at least 30 min on ice. The crosslinked chromatin was sheared to an average size of 500 bp by ten 30-second pulses using a BiorupterTM sonicator (Diagenode). The lysate was then centrifuged to remove cell debris, and the chromatin was quantified in a UV spectrophotometer. The chromatin (400 µg) was diluted 10-fold in dilution buffer (0.01% SDS, 1.1% Triton X-100, 1.2 mM EDTA 16.7 mM Tris pH8.10, 167 mM NaCl) and pre-cleared with 25 µl protein A sepharose beads (pre-absorbed with salmon sperm DNA and BSA) for 2 h at 4C. The chromatin supernatant was then incubated overnight with 5 µg of purified antibody at 4C. After incubation with protein A sepharose beads (50 µl) for 2h at 4C, the immune complexes were collected by centrifugation and washed with the following buffers each for 10 min at 4C; RIPA buffer (150 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris pH8.0, 0.1% SDS), high-salt buffer (500 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris pH8.0, 0.1% SDS, 1% NP40) LiCl buffer (250 mM LiCl, 50 mM Tris pH8.0, 0.5% Na deoxycholate, 1% NP40) and 2x TE (20 mM Tris pH8.0, 2 mM EDTA). The protein-DNA complexes were eluted from the beads in 450 µl elution buffer (1% SDS, 100 mM NaHCO3) at 55C for 2 h followed by the addition of proteinaseK to 500 µg/ml and overnight incubaton at 65C. Genomic DNA was isolated from the precipitated material as well as from the sheared chromatin input (1/100 of the material used for ChIP) by phenol extraction and ethanol precipitation. see chanel 1 1 µg ChIP DNA was directly labeled by Klenow (New England Biolabs) random priming with Cy5 nonamers (ChIP DNA isolated from normal rabbit IgG-immunoprecipitated cells) per manufacturer's protocol (http://www.nimblegen.com/products/lit/lit.html). 1 µg ChIP DNA was directly labeled by Klenow (New England Biolabs) random priming with Cy3 nonamers (ChIP DNA isolated from normal rabbit IgG-immunoprecipitated cells) per manufacturer's protocol (http://www.nimblegen.com/products/lit/lit.html).
