Figure 3From: Insulator function and topological domain border strength scale with architectural protein occupancyDrosophila TFIIIC clusters with CTCF at sites combinatorially bound by architectural proteins, cohesin, and condensin II. (a) Example genomics viewer profile of a combinatorially bound APBS, co-bound by dTFIIIC220, SMC-containing cohesin and condensin complexes, dCTCF, BEAF-32, Su(Hw), CP190, Mod(mdg4), DREF, Chromator, L(3)mbt, and marked by strong DHS. (b) Heatmap representation of co-factor co-localization at 3,728 genomic loci combinatorially bound by architectural proteins. Overlap frequency is the fraction of combinatorially bound loci bound by each individual factor. Inset: sites were identified as genomic fragments having four or more proteins in Kc167 cells using MACS called summits ±200 bp for factors dCTCF, BEAF-32, Su(Hw), CP190, Mod(mdg4), Zw5, DREF, Chromator, and L(3)mbt, and mapped independently of TFIIIC and SMC complexes; size distribution (bp) of combinatorially bound loci. P < 0.00001 for overlap between combinatorially bound loci with dTFIIIC220, Rad21, and CAP-H2, permutation test. Overlap frequency matrix hierarchically clustered (absolute centered, single linkage). (c) Heatmaps depict ChIP-seq tag densities for each Drosophila architectural protein as a function of distance, ±5 kb, from ETC loci. (d) Western blot analysis of control preimmune and α-dTFIIIC220 immunoaffinity purifications detect interactions between dTFIIIC220 and CP190, Mod(mdg4), and BEAF-32.Back to article page
