The CXXC domain, first identified as the reader of unmodified CpG dinucleotide, plays important roles in epigenetic regulation by targeting various activities to CpG islands. Here we systematically measured and compared the DNA-binding selectivities of all known human CXXC domains by different binding assays, and complemented the existing function-based classification of human CXXC domains with a...
Peptide motifs are often used for protein-protein interactions. We have recently demonstrated that ankyrin repeats of ANKRA2 and the paralogous bare lymphocyte syndrome transcription factor RFXANK recognize PxLPxL/I motifs shared by megalin, three histone deacetylases, and RFX5. We show here that that CCDC8 is a major partner of ANKRA2 but not RFXANK in cells. The CCDC8 gene is mutated in 3M syndrome,...
Deacetylation of nucleosomes by the Rpd3S histone deacetylase along the path of transcribing RNA polymerase II regulates access to DNA, contributing to faithful gene transcription. The association of Rpd3S with chromatin requires its Eaf3 subunit, which binds histone H3 methylated at lysine 36 (H3K36). Eaf3 is also part of NuA4 acetyltransferase that recognizes methylated H3K4. Here we show that Eaf3...
