PAX1 regulates phosphatases’ expression by recruiting the histone methyltransferase SET1B. The status of histone H3K4 and H3K9 trimethylation within the PTPRR promoter in PAX1-expressing cells after EGF treatment. (A) HeLa- and (B) SiHa-PAX1-expressing cells. (C,D) Promoter methylation status of phosphatase genes, in PAX1-expressing cells, after EGF treatment. Interaction between PAX1, SET1B, histone H3K4 HMT, and DNA demethylases, as detected by co-IP. An anti-FLAG antibody was used for immunoprecipitation, and antibodies against the histone H3K4 HMT complex and DNA demethylases were used for blotting (E). The reverse experiment, i.e., complexes immunoprecipitated by an antibody against WDR5, and immunoblot for Flag (F). (G) The binding of WDR5, within the PTPRR promoter in PAX1-expressing cells, after EGF treatment. Full blots are shown in Supplementary Figs S8 and S9.
