Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 induces chromatin remodeling and modification at the proximal promoter of Sox9 gene
چکیده انگلیسی
Sox9 is a key transcription factor which plays an important role in chondrogenesis. Although Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) has been reported to induce Sox9 expression, the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here, we used in vivo approaches to characterize BMP-2-induced alterations in chromatin organization around the Sox9 core promoter. Nuclease hypersensitive site mapping following BMP-2 stimulation showed an inducible hypersensitive site in the Sox9 proximal promoter. Immunoprecipitation (IP) experiments demonstrated that BMP-2 increased the association of the transcription factor NF-Y with histone acetyltransferase p300/CBP. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) analysis showed the binding of the NF-Y-p300 complex to the Sox9 gene proximal promoter along with PCAF and RNA polymerase II. We also found that BMP-2 stimulation caused histone hyperacetylation and methylation at the Sox9 gene. Collectively, these data suggest that the activation of Sox9 gene transcription by BMP-2 is associated with chromatin remodeling and histone modification.
