WDR5 up-regulates H3K4me3 expression and increases H3K4me3 binding to the promoter region of ZEB1. (A) The expression of H3K4me3 was assayed by Western blot in SW 1783-shWDR5 and its control cells. (B) The expression of H3K4me3 was assayed by Western blot in U 343-WDR5 and its control cells. (C) Schematic presentation of three regions relative to the ZEB1transcriptional start site used as primers to test H3K4me3 occupied abundance. (D) ChIP-qPCR was performed to assess H3K4me3 occupancy to ZEB1 transcriptional start site in SW 1783-shWDR5 and its control cells. IgG was used as negative control. (E) ChIP-qPCR was performed to assess H3K4me3 occupancy to ZEB1 transcriptional start site in U 343-WDR5 and its control cells. IgG was used as negative control. All experiments were repeated at least three times, and representative data are shown. **P<0.01 is based on Student’s t-test. Error bars indicate standard deviation.
