C/EBPβ recruits the methyltransferase DOT1L to target genes that methylate H3K79. a Venn diagrams showing the overlap of C/EBPβ- and DOT1L-targeted genes (chi-squared test). b Correlation analysis of C/EBPβ binding sites and DOT1L binding sites. Red dots represent genes with two peak centers located less than 2500 bp apart. c Representative results of C/EBPβ and DOT1L ChIP-qPCR. Primers were chosen according to the ChIP-seq results (upper panel). d C/EBPβ interacts with DOT1L. Lysates from C13* cells were immunoprecipitated (IP) with a mouse anti-C/EBPβ antibody and analyzed by western blotting using a rabbit anti-DOT1L antibody (upper panel) or the reciprocal (lower panel). e ChIP-reChIP experiments with anti-C/EBPβ and anti-DOT1L antibodies. Mouse IgG (mIgG) and rabbit IgG (rIgG) were used as negative controls. f Meta-analysis of the averaged DOT1L ChIP-seq signal of genes across a ±10 kb genomic region flanking the TSS. g Normalized C/EBPβ and DOT1L ChIP-seq signal of the representative C/EBPβ-DOT1L co-targeted genes (EREG and SLC38A1). h Analysis of DOT1L ChIP-qPCR (green), H3K79me2/me3 ChIP-qPCR (blue), and RT-qPCR (purple) in C13* cells. Gene names in red indicate documented cisplatin-resistance genes in ovarian cancer. i The protein levels of C/EBPβ-DOT1L co-targeted genes in the indicated OV2008 cells were detected by western blotting. Uncropped images of blots are shown in Supplementary Figure 25. *P < 0.05; ***P < 0.001
