Recruitment of RNAPII and acetylated H3K9 on transcription initiation sites of MMP genes in human keratinocytes. HKerE6SFM cells were exposed to 80 mJ/cm2 of UVB irradiation or mock treated. Chromatin was prepared from each sample 24 hours after the treatment. Antibodies against RNAPII, H3 and acetylated H3K9 were used for the immunoprecipitation. Precipitated chromatin samples were analysed by qPCR. Enrichments of RNAPII, H3 and acetylated H3K9 were calculated as % of total inputs and normalized to the H3 content of control samples. The means, standard deviations and significance levels based on three independent experimental triplicates are indicated. Star indicates statistical significance between the dataset (paired Anova *P < 0.05, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001, ****P < 0.0001). (A) RNAPII and H3K9ac enrichments in transcription initiation sites of MMP genes encoded by the 11q22.3 genomic region. (B) RNAPII and H3K9ac enrichments of MMP9 negative control gene.
