The HRP2/DPF3a/BAF complex is initially recruited to target genes by direct binding of HRP2 to the H3K36me2 mark upstream/downstream of the TSS region. HRP2 protein contains two known functional domains: a PWWP domain and an HIV integrase binding domain (IBD). 2011 Collaborative Innovation Center of Tianjin for Medical Epigenetics, Tianjin Key Laboratory of Medical Epigenetics, Key Laboratory of Immune Microenvironment and Disease (Ministry of Education), Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, School of Basic Medical Sciences, Tianjin Medical University The complex formed by proteins and DNA is called chromatin. After transfection for 6 h, the medium containing the transfection reagent was removed and replaced with fresh complete DMEM. Chromatin remodeling and histone modifying enzymes are two large classes of chromatin regulators that have distinct, fundamental roles in chromatin organization ().The misregulation of chromatin remodeling and modification is implicated in diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and many cancers [1–3].

We performed HRP2 immunoprecipitation (IP) using FLAG antibody with extracts from FLAG-HRP2-expressing cells. (HRP2 and DPF3a regulate chromatin accessibility of myogenic gene loci through recruitment of the BAF complex. Chromatin is the complex of DNA and proteins that are packed within the nucleus of mammalian cells. The sequences of biotinylated peptides used were as follows: Biotin-IBM (Biotin-LFGSTSESDTSTFHGFDEDD) and Biotin-p-IBM [Biotin-LFGSTSESDT(p-S)TFHGFDEDD].Total RNAs from cells were isolated using TRIzol (Invitrogen) following the procedures described previously (The raw sequencing reads were checked using FastQC (version 0.11.8). Deregulation of chromatin remodeling causes loss of transcriptional regulation at these critical check-points required for proper cellular functions, and thus causes various disease syndromes, including cancer.Chromatin relaxation is one of the earliest cellular responses to DNA damage.Another process of chromatin relaxation, after formation of a DNA double-strand break, employs γH2AX, the phosphorylated form of the γH2AX does not, by itself, cause chromatin decondensation, but within seconds of irradiation the protein “Mediator of the DNA damage checkpoint 1” (The fast initial chromatin relaxation upon DNA damage (with rapid initiation of DNA repair) is followed by a slow recondensation, with chromatin recovering a compaction state close to its predamage level in ∼ 20 min.Chromatin remodeling provides fine-tuning at crucial cell growth and division steps, like cell-cycle progression, DNA repair and chromosome segregation, and therefore exerts tumor-suppressor function.

Methylation of lysines H3K4 and H3K36 is correlated with transcriptional activation while demethylation of H3K4 is correlated with silencing of the genomic region. Cutadapt (v2.0) was used for adapter trimming and low-quality filtering to get the clean data. Mechanistically, through its HIV integrase binding domain (IBD), HRP2 associates with the BRG1/BRM-associated factor (BAF) chromatin remodeling complex by interacting directly with the BAF45c (DPF3a) subunit. These are known as the SWI2/SNF2 group and the imitation SWI (ISWI) group.
